PS. Just hope and pray that those pesky Brazilians don't start competing in global iron ore markets again, eh?
It will be neat if the iron ore price was able to remain at several standard deviations above its long-term average for a few more decades.

[PS. As an asides "free to do as you please" and "quarantine the minute you return" sounds like a bit of a contradiction in terms to me.]
