      Competitive Landscape Brief

      Demand is driven by industrial demand and economic growth, both domestic and foreign. Individual company profitability depends on volume and operating efficiency. Large companies can afford to discover and develop new deposits and increase reserves. Small companies typically own just one mine, limit exploration to that one property, and operate it as efficiently as possible. Metal ore mining is capital-intensive: annual revenue per employee is about $600,000. Imports account for about 10 percent of the US metal ore market and exports for about 15 percent of US production. Imports come mainly from Canada and Australia. Exports go primarily to Canada, China, Japan, Korea, and Belgium.
