July 25 (Reuters) - Iron ore futures climbed on Monday to their peaks in more than one week, extending a rally spurred by hopes of an economic rebound for top steel producer and consumer China in the third quarter, and support for the country's troubled property sector.
The most-traded iron ore, for September delivery, on China's Dalian Commodity Exchange DCIOcv1 rose as much as 9% to hit 723.50 yuan ($107.09) a tonne, its strongest level since July 14.
Iron ore's front-month August contract on the Singapore Exchange SZZFQ2 advanced by up to 4.1% to $107.35 a tonne, also the highest since July 14. It lodged its first weekly gain in three weeks on Friday.
