Iron ore fines (Fe 62%) spot prices edged up by $0.5/dmt d-o-d to $102.45/dmt CFR China on 27 Aug’25. Spot trading centered on mid-grade fines, lifting prices slightly. Buyers showed little preference between Sep and Oct cargoes, reflecting a thin difference. Liquidity remained thin amid production cuts and earlier restocking, while squeezed mill margins kept purchases need-based and shifted demand away from high-grade fines.
