Kulindeleke ukuba iprojekthi yesinyithi yaseBaowu Australia Hardey yaseTshayina iqalise kwakhona, ngemveliso yonyaka ye-40 yezigidi zeetoni!
Ngomhla wama-23 kuDisemba, iChina Baowu Iron and Steel Group yaqala “uSuku lweNkampani” okokuqala. Kwindawo yomsitho, iprojekthi yeHardey iron ore e-Australia ekhokelwa yiBaowu Resources yenze inkqubela phambili yaza yagqiba “ukutyikitywa kwelifu”. Oku kutyikitywa kuthetha ukuba iprojekthi ye-iron ore enemveliso yonyaka yeetoni ezingama-40 ezigidi kulindeleke ukuba iqaliswe kwakhona, kwaye iChina Baowu kulindeleke ukuba ifumane umthombo ozinzileyo nosemgangathweni ophezulu wokungeniswa kwe-iron ore.
Idiphozithi yeHardey yeyona ndawo yokugcina isinyithi ekumgangatho ophezulu kwiProjekthi ye-Premium Iron Ore yase-Australia (API), enomxholo wesinyithi ongaphezulu kwama-60% udlula iitoni ezili-150 lezigidi. Iprojekthi ye-Direct Shipment Iron Ore (DSO) yenziwe yi-Aquila, inkampani engaphantsi kweBaowu Resources, ngokubambisana namanye amaqumrhu adibeneyo, kunye neHancock, umvelisi wesine ngobukhulu wesinyithi e-Australia. I-China Baowu Iron and Steel Group ineprojekthi yesinyithi ekumgangatho ophezulu (API) engama-42.5%, uphuhliso lwayo lubaluleke kakhulu kwisicwangciso sokuqinisekisa izixhobo zamazwe ngamazwe ze-Baowu iron ore yaseTshayina.
Le projekthi yiprojekthi yexesha elide equka imigodi, amazibuko, kunyeiiprojekthi zikaloliweIxabiso lokuqala lophuhliso elalicwangcisiwe yayiyi-US$7.4 yeebhiliyoni kunye nemveliso yonyaka eyayicwangcisiwe yeetoni ezingama-40 ezigidi.
NgoMeyi ka-2014, iBaosteel yayifuna ngokungxamisekileyo ukufumana izixhobo ezintsha zesinyithi, kwaye kunye nomqhubi omkhulu kaloliwe e-Australia, i-Aurizon, bathenga i-Aquila nge-A$1.4 yeebhiliyoni, ngaloo ndlela befumana i-50% yezabelo kwiprojekthi yesinyithi esemgangathweni ophezulu e-Australia (API). Izabelo eziseleyo zazizezenkampani ezinkulu zesinyithi zaseMzantsi Korea. I-Pohang Iron and Steel (POSCO) kunye ne-AMCI zibambe i-arhente yotyalo-mali.
Ngelo xesha, ixabiso lentsimbi eqingqiweyo lalisondele kwi-US$103 ngetoni. Kodwa amaxesha amahle akade. Njengoko kwanda abasebenzi bemigodi abaphambili e-Australia naseBrazil, kunye nokwehla kwemfuno yaseTshayina, ukuhanjiswa kwentsimbi yehlabathi kungaphezulu, kwaye amaxabiso entsimbi "ayehla".
NgoMeyi ka-2015, amaqabane afanelekileyo afana neBaosteel Group, iPohang Steel, i-AMCI kunye ne-Aurizon babhengeze ukuba baza kulibazisa isigqibo sokuqhubela phambili le projekthi kude kube sekupheleni kuka-2016.

Ngomhla we-11 kweyoMnga ngo-2015, ixabiso le-iron ore elinomgangatho we-62% kunye nendawo eya kuyo eQingdao lifikelele kwinqanaba eliphantsi le-US$38.30, eliphantsi kakhulu ukusukela kwidatha yekowuteshini yemihla ngemihla ngoMeyi ka-2009. Umqhubi ubhengeze ngokuthe ngqo ukuba kunokwenzeka ukuyimisa le projekthi. Umsebenzi wophando lwezesondo ubangelwa ziimeko ezimbi zemarike kunye neemeko zokungaqinisekanga zokubonelela kunye nemfuno kwixesha elizayo.
Okwangoku, le projekthi ibimisiwe.
Ngokweengxelo zeendaba zamanye amazwe, umvelisi wesinyithi wesine ngobukhulu e-Australia uHancock kunye ne-joint venture yase-China iBaowu batyikitye isivumelwano sokuthumela ngaphandle i-iron ore evela kwiprojekthi yaseHardey ngololiwe kunye nezibuko laseRoy Hill. Akukho mfuneko yokwakha amazibuko amatsha kunye noololiwe, kwaye uphuhliso lweprojekthi yesinyithi yesinyithi ekumgangatho ophezulu (API) yase-Australia nalo lususe umqobo omkhulu, kwaye uphuhliso lubekwe kwi-ajenda.
Ngokweengxelo zeendaba zamanye amazwe, i-ore yokuqala yeprojekthi yeHardey kulindeleke ukuba ithunyelwe ngo-2023. Nangona kunjalo, ngokuqhubeka kweeprojekthi ezifana neSimandou Iron Mine, iTshayina sele inezinye iindlela ezingabizi kakhulu, kwaye ubungakanani bayo bemveliso bunokuncipha ngoku.
Kodwa nokuba kunjalo, ukuqala kweprojekthi yeHardey kuya kuphinda kuphucule ilizwi leBaowu kunye nomxokelelwane weshishini lesinyithi laseTshayina, kwaye kuphucule amandla okuqinisekisa izixhobo zesinyithi zelizwe lam.
Kwiminyaka yakutshanje, ngokudibanisa okuqhubekayo kunye nokuhlelwa ngokutsha, iBaowu Group iqhubekile nokutyebisa imithombo yesinyithi, ngakumbi ngokubhekiselele kwimithombo yaphesheya.
E-Australia, iBaosteel Group, ngaphambi kokuhlelwa ngokutsha, yaseka iBaoruiji Iron Ore Joint Venture kunye neHamersley Iron Ore Co., Ltd. yase-Australia ngo-2002. Le projekthi yaqala ukusebenza ngo-2004 kwaye iza kuqaliswa ukusebenza minyaka le kwiminyaka engama-20 ezayo. Yathumela iitoni ezili-10 lezigidi ze-iron ore kwiBaosteel Group; ngo-2007, iBaosteel yasebenzisana nenkampani ye-iron ore yase-Australia i-FMG ukuhlola izixhobo ze-magnetite zaseGlacier Valley ezinee-1 billion zeetoni; ngo-2009, yafumana i-15% yezabelo zenkampani yemigodi yase-Australia i-Aquila Resources, yaba yisabelo sayo sesibini ngobukhulu; ngoJuni ka-2012, yaseka i-Iron Bridge kunye ne-FMG kwaye yadibanisa izilangazelelo ezimbini zeprojekthi ye-iron ore e-Australia. I-Baosteel Group yayine-88% yezabelo; i-iron ore yeprojekthi yeHardey yathengwa ngo-2014…
Iqela leBaowu lifumene iChana Iron Mine, iZhongxi Iron Mine kunye nezinye izixhobo eOstreliya ngokuthenga iSinosteel; lafumana iMaanshan Iron and Steel kunye neWuhan Iron and Steel, laza lafumana i-joint venture yeWillara Iron Mine yase-Australia, njl.njl.…
E-Afrika, iBaowu Group iceba ukwakha i-iron ore yaseSimandou (eSimandou) eGuinea, eAfrika. Inani lilonke le-iron ore yaseSimandou lidlula iibhiliyoni ezili-10 zeetoni, kwaye umgangatho ophakathi we-iron ore yi-65%. I-iron ore yembiwe ngezona zininzi kwaye ikumgangatho ophezulu we-ore.
Kwangaxeshanye, iBaoyu Liberia, iqumrhu elihlangeneyo elasekwa yiBaosteel Resources (50.1%), iHenan International Cooperation Group (CHICO, 40%) kunye neChina-Africa Development Fund (9.9%), ihlola uphando eLiberia. Iindawo zokugcina isinyithi eLiberia ziphakathi kweebhiliyoni ezi-4 ukuya kwiibhiliyoni ezi-6.5 zeetoni (umxholo wesinyithi uphakathi kwama-30% ukuya kuma-67%). Lilizwe lesibini ngobukhulu ekuveliseni nasekuthumeleni isinyithi ngaphandle eAfrika. Likufutshane neSierra Leone neGuinea, iziseko ezibalulekileyo zesinyithi eTshayina phesheya kwezilwandle. Kulindeleke ukuba libe lelinye isiseko saphesheya kwezilwandle eTshayina.
Kuyabonakala ukuba iBaowu Group, ngophuhliso lwayo kwiminyaka yakutshanje, sele ibambe isikhundla esibalulekileyo kukhuphiswano lwehlabathi lwemithombo yesinyithi kwaye ibe yenye yezona zithuba zibalulekileyo zokuba iTshayina ifikelele kwihlabathi liphela.
