Apr 08, 2009 -- Cotton & Western Mining, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: CWRN); China Steel Makers have been buying iron ore with first quarter 2009 seeing an increase of raw materials imported. Forecasters believe that within the first half of year 2009, some upward movement of spot market supplies will improve. High grade magnetite iron ore such as the CWRN Baja California, Mexico iron deposits are still viable to the market and CWRN is receiving many inquiries for high grade crude iron ore.

"A wide range of economic indicators in China are improving, indicating that a recovery is underway," said Vikram Nehru, the World Bank's chief economist for the East Asia and Pacific region.
The Purchasing Managers Index of the manufacturing sector, a key indicator of China's economic health, rose for four consecutive months to reach 52.4 in March. It was the first time it rebounded above 50 since July 2008, indicating a "stabilizing and recovering economy," said Ma Jiantang, head of the National Bureau of Statistics at the release of the figures.
China's urban fixed asset investment surged by 26.5 percent in the first quarter of 2009, and new yuan loans reached a record high of about 2.7 trillion yuan during the same period, pumping in massive liquidity to prop up the economy. "We are seeing these encouraging signs (in China) and we do think the stimulus policies will allow China to continue to see some growth in a very weak world economy," Louis Kuijs, senior economist with the World Bank, said.
CWRN is currently in talks with a major Chinese Steel Mill, and fully expects to proceed with the project within the year 2009.
