1 Tons are metric tons (2,205 pounds). |
• | Increased sales price primarily driven by changes in spot market pricing and lower freight rates resulted in an increase of $32.2 million. |
◦ | An increase in the Platts 62 percent Fe spot rate to an average of $148 per ton from $143 per ton in the comparable prior-year quarter resulted in an increase of $5 per ton. |
◦ | A decrease of 14 percent in the Platts freight rates in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 resulted in a $7 per ton increase to revenue. |
◦ | Provisional pricing from prior-quarter sales were favorable by $9.3 million in the first quarter of 2013 compared to an unfavorable $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2012. This resulted in a $7 per ton increase period-over-period. |
◦ | Offset by one shipment made during the first quarter of 2012 that was based on 2011 contract year pricing terms, which were more favorable than 2012. The impact resulted in a $5 per ton decrease between the first quarter of 2013 to the first quarter of 2012 comparison. This type of shipment was not recurring during the first quarter of 2013. |
• | Partially offset by fewer pellets sold in the first quarter of 2013 due to lower production volumes, which resulted in decreased revenues of $7.6 million in the first three months of 2013 compared with the same period in 2012. |
• | Unplanned repairs at Wabush mine in the first quarter of 2012 resulted in $8.0 million of idle period costs that were not recurring in 2013. |
• | A decrease in costs of $10.5 million in our concentrate operation primarily caused by reduced contractor spending, lower transshipping costs as a result of the dock upgrades and lower maintenance costs. |
• | Partially offset by higher costs of $13.4 million as a result of higher mining costs at Wabush mine. |

1 Metric tons (2,205 pounds). Cockatoo Island production and sales are reflected at our 50 percent share during the first quarter of 2012. |
• | Sales volume during the three months ended March 31, 2013 decreased to 2.3 million metric tons compared with 2.8 million metric tons in the comparable period in 2012, resulting in a decrease in revenue of $61.0 million. Timing of vessel shipments negatively impacted the period-over-period results by approximately 300 thousand tons. We completed mining and sold our interest in Cockatoo Island at the end of the third quarter of 2012, which resulted in a decrease of 238 thousand tons. |
• | Sales price was impacted negatively by lower than expected Fe grade and associated penalties in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012, which resulted in a decrease of $9 per ton. |
• | Additionally, pricing on shipments to two customers are based upon a quarterly lagged price, which was $41 per ton lower in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the prior year. This lag price to these two customers, period-over-period resulted in a negative $6 per ton impact on |
• | These decreases were offset partially by the increase in the Platts 62 percent Fe spot rate to an average of $148 per ton from $143 per ton in the comparable prior-year quarter, which resulted in an increase of $5 per ton on a realized basis. |
• | Lower sales volumes, which resulted in lower costs of $39.7 million compared to the comparable period in the prior year. |
• | Higher mining costs of $20.1 million mainly attributable to increased production and stripping costs and higher logistic costs of $23.5 million due to higher haulage and railed tons compared to the comparable period in the prior year, partially offset by a negative stockpile movement due to the build up of inventory levels in the current quarter. |
• | Increased depreciation of $3.9 million period-over-period as a result of the completion of the Koolyanobbing expansion project. |
• | Increased depletion of $1.5 million as mineral rights are depleted based on tons mined. |

2 Tons are short tons (2,000 pounds). |
• | Sales volume increases of 380 thousand tons or 27.0 percent during 2013 resulting in an increase in revenue of $45.6 million. Oak Grove mine had increased inventory availability in the first three months of 2013 compared to the prior year as the April 2011 tornado resulted in reduced inventory levels in the first three months of 2012. |
• | Our realized product revenue rate for the three months ended March 31, 2013 resulted in a decrease of $19.6 million or 9.3 percent on a per ton basis. This decrease is primarily due to the downward trend in market pricing period-over-period, offset slightly by positive sales mix. |
• | Product sales mix for low-volatile, high-volatile and thermal coal were 68.7 percent, 23.4 percent and 7.9 percent, respectively, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to 60.3 percent, 20.0 percent and 19.7 percent for the comparable period in 2012. |
• | Higher sales volume attributable to additional low-volatile metallurgical coal sales, as discussed above, resulting in an additional $41.7 million of costs. |
• | The accelerated closure of the Dingess Chilton mine, which resulted in the recording of $4.3 million or $2.39 per ton of additional depletion during the first quarter of 2013. An additional $2.4 million or $1.40 per ton of depreciation and depletion was recorded in the first quarter of 2013, as compared to the first quarter of 2012, as the Lower War Eagle mine moved into the production stage of mining in November 2012. |
• | Partially offset by lower maintenance and contractor spend of $7.11 per ton and lower employment costs of $6.21 per ton, partially offset by higher costs as a result of product mix and volume of $8.56 per ton, as compared to the same period in 2012. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 19 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Purchase Commitments In 2011, we began to incur capital commitments related to the expansion of the Bloom Lake mine. The Phase II expansion project includes expansion of the mine and the mine’s processing capabilities. The capital investment also includes common infrastructure necessary to sustain current operations and support the expansion. As previously announced, at the Bloom Lake mine we are delaying certain components of the Phase II expansion, including the completion of the concentrator and load-out facility. Common infrastructure projects necessary to sustain current operations and support the expansion are continuing as planned. We expect to complete Phase II construction in 2014, which will depend on seaborne iron ore pricing, customer demand and other market conditions. Through March 31, 2013, approximately $1.2 billion of the total capital investment required for the Bloom Lake expansion project had been committed, of which a total of approximately $889 million had been expended. Of the remaining committed capital, expenditures of approximately $311 million are expected to be made during the remainder of 2013. Contingencies Litigation We are currently a party to various claims and legal proceedings incidental to our operations. If management believes that a loss arising from these matters is probable and can reasonably be estimated, we record the amount of the loss, or the minimum estimated liability when the loss is estimated using a range, and no point within the range is more probable than another. As additional information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary. Based on currently available information, management believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur. An unfavorable ruling could include monetary damages, additional funding requirements or an injunction. If an unfavorable ruling were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material impact on the financial position and results of operations of the period in which the ruling occurs, or future periods. However, we believe that any pending litigation will not result in a material liability in relation to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. |

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES | NOTE 3 - DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES The following table presents the fair value of our derivative instruments and the classification of each in the Statements of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Position as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012:
Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments Cash Flow Hedges Australian and Canadian Dollar Foreign Exchange Contracts We are subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates as a result of our operations in Australia and Canada. With respect to Australia, foreign exchange risk arises from our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates because the functional currency of our Asia Pacific operations is the Australian dollar. Our Asia Pacific operations receive funds in U.S. currency for their iron ore sales. The functional currency of our Canadian operations is the U.S. dollar; however, the production costs for these operations primarily are incurred in the Canadian dollar. We use foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge our foreign currency exposure for a portion of our U.S. dollar sales receipts in our Australian functional currency entities and our Canadian dollar operating costs. For our Australian operations, U.S. dollars are converted to Australian dollars at the currency exchange rate in effect during the period the transaction occurred. For our Canadian operations, U.S. dollars are converted to Canadian dollars at the exchange rate in effect for the period the operating costs are incurred. The primary objective for the use of these instruments is to reduce exposure to changes in Australian and U.S. currency exchange rates and U.S. and Canadian currency exchange rates, respectively, and to protect against undue adverse movement in these exchange rates. These instruments qualify for hedge accounting treatment, and are tested for effectiveness at inception and at least once each reporting period. If and when any of our hedge contracts are determined not to be highly effective as hedges, the underlying hedged transaction is no longer likely to occur, or the derivative is terminated, hedge accounting is discontinued. As of March 31, 2013, we had outstanding Australian and Canadian foreign currency exchange contracts with notional amounts of $378.0 million and $557.3 million, respectively, in the form of forward contracts with varying maturity dates ranging from April 2013 to March 2014. This compares with outstanding Australian and Canadian foreign currency exchange contracts with a notional amount of $400.0 million and $630.4 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2012. Changes in fair value of highly effective hedges are recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Statements of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Position. Any ineffectiveness is recognized immediately in income and as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, there was no material ineffectiveness recorded for these foreign exchange contracts. Amounts recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss are reclassified into earnings in the same period the forecasted transaction affects earnings. Of the amounts remaining in Accumulated other comprehensive loss related to Australian hedge contracts and Canadian hedge contracts, we estimate that gains of $8.1 million and losses of $5.0 million (net of tax), respectively, will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. The following summarizes the effect of our derivatives designated as hedging instruments, net of tax in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Statements of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments Customer Supply Agreements Most of our U.S. Iron Ore long-term supply agreements are comprised of a base price with annual price adjustment factors, some of which are subject to annual price collars in order to limit the percentage increase or decrease in prices for our iron ore pellets during any given year. The base price is the primary component of the purchase price for each contract. The inflation-indexed price adjustment factors are integral to the iron ore supply contracts and vary based on the agreement, but typically include adjustments based upon changes in the Platts 62 percent Fe market rate and/or international pellet prices and changes in specified Producers Price Indices, including those for all commodities, industrial commodities, energy and steel. The pricing adjustments generally operate in the same manner, with each factor typically comprising a portion of the price adjustment, although the weighting of each factor varies based upon the specific terms of each agreement. In most cases, these adjustment factors have not been finalized at the time our product is sold. In these cases, we historically have estimated the adjustment factors at each reporting period based upon the best third-party information available. The estimates are then adjusted to actual when the information has been finalized. The price adjustment factors have been evaluated to determine if they contain embedded derivatives. The price adjustment factors share the same economic characteristics and risks as the host contract and are integral to the host contract as inflation adjustments; accordingly, they have not been separately valued as derivative instruments. Certain supply agreements with one U.S. Iron Ore customer provide for supplemental revenue or refunds to the customer based on the customer’s average annual steel pricing at the time the product is consumed in the customer’s blast furnace. The supplemental pricing is characterized as a freestanding derivative and is required to be accounted for separately once the product is shipped. The derivative instrument, which is finalized based on a future price, is adjusted to fair value as a revenue adjustment each reporting period until the pellets are consumed and the amounts are settled. We recognized $24.1 million and $39.2 million, respectively, as Product revenues in the Statements of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to the supplemental payments. Derivative assets, representing the fair value of the pricing factors, were $49.4 million and $58.9 million, respectively, in the March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 Statements of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Position. Provisional Pricing Arrangements Certain of our U.S. Iron Ore, Eastern Canadian Iron Ore and Asia Pacific Iron Ore customer supply agreements specify provisional price calculations, where the pricing mechanisms generally are based on market pricing, with the final sales price to be based on market inputs at a specified point in time in the future, per the terms of the supply agreements. The difference between the provisionally agreed-upon price and the estimated final sales price is characterized as a derivative and is required to be accounted for separately once the revenue has been recognized. The derivative instrument is adjusted to fair value through Product revenues each reporting period based upon current market data and forward-looking estimates provided by management until the final sales price is determined. We have recorded $3.9 million and $3.5 million, respectively, as Derivative assets and $6.8 million and $11.3 million, respectively, as derivative liabilities included in Other current liabilities in the Statements of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Position at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, related to our estimate of final sales price with our U.S. Iron Ore and Asia Pacific Iron Ore customers at March 31, 2013 and related to our U.S. Iron Ore and Eastern Canadian Iron Ore customers at December 31, 2012. These amounts represent the difference between the provisional price agreed upon with our customers based on the supply agreement terms and our estimate of the final sales price based on the price calculations established in the supply agreements. As a result, we recognized a net $2.9 million as a decrease and a net $3.0 million as an increase in Product revenues in the Statements of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to these arrangements. The following summarizes the effect of our derivatives that are not designated as hedging instruments in the Statements of Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:
