Goncalves: Discussions Over POSCO Partnership Are Continuing
06/16/2026 - A potential partnership between Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. and POSCO is more of a matter of when and not if, Cleveland-Cliffs chairman Lourenco Goncalves said Tuesday.
“Something is going to happen. I don’t know when. I’m not in a hurry. I don’t know exactly what because we are not done yet,” Goncalves said, speaking during 2026 Global Steel Dynamics Forum.
Goncalves headlined the morning sessions of the annual conference’s opening day, telling attendees that talks between the companies are ongoing.
“Some friends are fast. Some friends are slow. POSCO is slow. But we respect that,” he said.
