BHP BILLITON IRON ORE NEGOTIATIONS
BHP Billiton today announced that it had reached agreement with a significant
number of customers throughout Asia to move existing iron ore contracts that
were previously priced annually onto a shorter term landed price equivalent
basis. The agreements reached represent the majority of BHP Billiton`s iron ore
sales volume.
The structural change that these settlements represent is consistent with BHP
Billiton achieving market clearing prices.
