Steel built the modern world. Now the way we make it is changing.
Hawsons Iron (ASX:HIO) Managing Director Tom Revy joins us for a deep dive into the global steel industry, the push towards lower-emissions production, and why ‘high-grade’ magnetite could play an important role in that transition.
From China’s changing steelmaking strategy to India’s growing demand, Tom unpacks the forces reshaping the market and explains where Hawsons’ proposed project near Broken Hill, New South Wales, fits into the picture.
Here’s what comes into focus:
- The global shift: China, India, and the changing steel supply chain
- Green steel: Why direct reduced iron and electric arc furnaces matter
- The grade advantage: Hawsons’ reported 69.3% iron product and low impurities
- Funding the scale: A three-part approach spanning debt, investors, and potential offtake partners
- The road ahead: Feasibility work, project finance, approvals, and construction planning
The steel industry is changing its recipe. Hawsons wants to be part of the feedstock.
