Iron ore is a strategic resource in international trade, primarily destined for steel production. Although Argentina is not among the world’s leading producers, it holds significant reserves in provinces such as Jujuy and San Juan, and exports moderate volumes to markets in Asia and Latin America. Additionally, the country plays an important role as a logistics corridor and transit country for minerals extracted in neighboring countries like Bolivia and Brazil, facilitating their transport to Atlantic ports via its railway and road networks.
Iron ore logistics in Argentina rely on specialized rail corridors, such as the Belgrano Cargas and San Martín Railways, which connect the mining areas in the northwest to port terminals in Rosario and Buenos Aires, and in some cases, to Chilean ports through regional integration agreements. This geographic and logistical positioning makes Argentina a strategic player in the regional mineral supply chain, supporting both direct trade and export operations to third countries.
