Long term iron-ore and coal prices...

ghmm ... One web-site with historic iron ore and coal prices is found at http://www.indexmundi.com/commodities/?commodity=iron-ore&months=120 ... there may be many others...

Note that with respect to CLF, metallurgical coal prices are more important than thermal coal prices. Also, not all of CLF’s production is 62% iron ore fines... but this is a convenient proxy.
