Cotton & Western Mining, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: CWRN) Robert L. Cotton, president & C.E.O., announced today that a
consensus agreement between the company and its potential buyers for raw
crude iron ore was reached for year 2007; per Dry Metric Ton (DMT) pricing
for FOB sales the Port of Wawa, the Philippines at US$46.00 per DMT and
US$42.00 per DMT shipped from the Pacific Ocean Port of Manzanillo, Mexico.
The Company has deferred executing a formal buy and sale agreement until
mid-February 2007. It is projected that 2007 production sales will be
600,000mt from the Nagsabongan mine, Mindoro Island, the Philippines and
800,000mt from the Rio Fox mine, Mexico. Mining operations at the Rio Fox
will be under a third party joint venture agreement. In a recently
published report, Merrill Lynch analyst predicted a 22% increase in Chinese
steel production to 425 million metric tons year ending 2006 and continuing
to increase into year 2010. Current iron ore delivered pricing on spot
sales is US$76.00 per DMT. The Company is well positioned with its Mindoro
Island property to substantially benefit from lower shipping cost than
materials being imported from Mexico and South America. The Chinese
Seaborne Trade is annually over 250 million metric tons, making China the
world's largest importer of raw steel making iron ores.
