Launch of Metal Expert Witness Litigation Support Service

Launch of Metal Expert Witness Litigation Support Service: MCI announces launch of expert witness litigation support service for clients involved in metal and mining sector legal disputes.

This expansion has been made possible by the merger earlier this year of MCI with London-based metals and mining consultancy Saint Barbara. Saint Barbara has provided specialist advice to the world's metals, minerals and mining industries since 1992 across commodities that include base and ferrous metals, steel and its raw materials, battery metals, precious metals, and rare earths. MetalExpertWitness.com leverages the Group’s combined capabilities and experience, extending MCI’s expert witness offering from iron and steel, to a much broader range of non-ferrous metals that include aluminium, copper, lead, zinc, nickel, gold and silver, as well as ferrous and non-ferrous metal ores. 

Commenting on the new service, Andrzej Kotas, Managing Director of MCI, said  “Across metal ores, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, we can offer professional support and advice on disputes concerning operations, technical matters, contract terms, breach of contract issues, fraud and theft, product quality matters, pricing, storage, and transportation; as well as provide independent support with asset and quantum valuations”.

Iron ore prices to soar

The latest view on the 2008 iron ore price is that it will increase by 30-50% over 2007 price level. Interestingly, this perspective is not driven by the BHP-Billiton - Rio bid. Rather, this view emerges for a different reason - which is urbanisation in China and India. According to the report, demand for steel will increase as people move from rural agriculture-based activities to manufacturing or service-based activities located in cities.
