China’s Iron Ore Consumption is among the world’s highest given China’s income. According to a latest study, Given China’s GDP per capita, China’s Iron Ore consumption of around 1000 Kg per capita makes it one of the highest in the world. The only other country that could be perceived at the similar level is Australia with a staggering 2000 Kg per capita consumption of Iron Ore. On the other hand, the traditional western powers, such as USA, UK and Germany, all have very low Iron Ore consumption per capita compared to their high GDP per capita.

中国对铁矿石的需求在世界上处于{lx1}地位。通过对中国平均每人铁矿石需求和人均GDP的比较可以得出，中国的人均铁矿石需求和澳大利亚同处世界{zg}水平。其他发达国家如美国，英国等，都处于相反的状态，即人均GDP很高，但是人均铁矿石需求很低。这也可以看出这些国家由于环境原因将炼钢厂早已逐出本国，由此目前全球主要的炼钢能力集中于中印等新兴经济。
