    Hi Guys getting me head around this stock.

    According to GS:
    FMG cost structure:

    Cash costs are around $15/wmt.

    But this is wmt, where as the price of iron ore is quoted on dmt, correct?

    So FMG cost structure:
    $15/wmt

    This is the cash cost, then, to input total costs:
    Add:
    Freight US$/wmt 11.1
    Royalites US$ 8.6
    G&A US$/wmt 0
    Sustaining capex US$/wmt 6.1
    Net Interest US$/wmt 0.9

    Total costs US$wmt $41.5

    But then this needs to be converted to dmt and for the fact that FMG iron is lower than 62%.

    So GS product discount and moisture adjustment additional costs of US $43.5

    This gives a FMG break even price (62% Fe dmt) of US$84.90

    Does this sound correct?

    I image the two variables in this would be Royalty (if iron ore prices drop royalty drops)
    and
    Freight: currently global elevated freight rates has resulted in the $11/wmt cost, but if freight rates come down in the future then this number will drop.
