Tags: China
Two of the world's largest miners are bracing for a slowdown in China's economy. Executives at Rio Tinto and BHP Billiton both say steel growth rates have flattened in China.

"With prices dropping the implication is that you're going to have a relative oversupply and that has to be absorbed before new construction starts," Melek says.
