    Bit more Frank from Friday's Intersuisse morning report-

    *********

    Gindalbie Metals (GBG) and Rio Tinto (RIO)
    Anshan Iron & Steel Group Corp. President Zhang Xiaogang
    said that there has been no result in the annual iron ore
    pricing talks between Chinese steel mills and global iron ore producers. "We haven't had a conclusion yet" on
    expectations for the new contract iron ore price, which will apply in the 12 months starting April 1, Zhang told journalists in Perth. But he said that it is a "very difficult time for everyone" in the steel sector and Zhang would appreciate the opportunity for iron ore miners and steel mills to "work together and cooperate."

    Zhang, in Perth to meet Western Australian Premier Colin Barnett and executives from its Australian joint venture partner, Gindalbie Metals, said that he plans to meet with Rio Tinto executives Friday and pricing will be discussed. Zhang also emphasised the financial stresses being experienced by Chinese steel makers. "I believe that, starting from April this year, every single steel
    maker in China was making a loss." Zhang said that
    Australian government approvals for Ansteel's $162m
    investment in Gindalbie are taking "a fair bit of time" but he
    said clearance for the deal from Australia's Foreign
    Investment Review Board will be "coming very soon." GBG
    firmed 2 cents (2.46%) to $0.63 and RIO firmed $3.35
    (6.06%) to $58.60.
