    Summary:

    Bloom Lake ore currently fetching US$130/t CFR China (approx)

    All-in sustaining costs FOB Sept-Iles US$42/t

    Freight cost Sept-Iles to China/Japan now US$38/t approx (US$28.50 current C3 rate - Brazil to China)

    Total costs US$80/t

    Gross profit US$50/t

    Iron Ore price high but CIA costs also high

    CIA yet to pay Canadian corporate taxes due to first year loss due to mine start-up

    Net profit & EPS will be better than last quarter but not stellar (my opinion only).
