Rio de Janeiro-based mining giant CVRD (NYSE: RIO) has signed a contract to deliver direct-reduction iron ore pellets to the Qatar Iron and Steel Company (Qasco), a CVRD spokeswoman confirmed to BNamericas. CVRD will deliver 2.66Mt of pellets over the course of the six-year contract, CVRD said, declining to disclose an overall value for the contract. CVRD said long-term contracts such as the one signed with Qasco support "CVRD's investment in the expansion of its production capacity and provide a steady flow of high-quality raw material for the steel industry."
