Six global manganese production to a quarter of slight decrease over the same period last year

Welcome to www.chinaferroalloy.com
Reportedly, Brazil CVRD Manganese ore production output and Western Australia by the typhoon, 2007 a quarter of the world's manganese ore output to be difficult to improve. This led directly to the second quarter, shipments of the world manganese ore prices.
six major world manganese producers a quarter of its total output is estimated at 3.67 million tons, If these manufacturers in every quarter to maintain the level of production, then 07 annual manganese ore output is expected to reach 14.7 million tons, 2006 than the 15.2 million tons of the sharp decline in output.
2007 first quarter, BHPB and rehabilitation of the secret production of manganese ore in 2006 than the same period has grown. Nevertheless, But Brazil's CVRD in a quarter of output than 06 sharp drop in the same period of 136,000 tonnes (25%), Therefore, in 2007 a quarter of the world's manganese ore output in order to increase rather difficult. Another factor is the seasonal typhoons hit Western Australia, therefore, Australian Consolidated Mines (CML) has had to reduce the output of the first quarter.
Recalled a quarter of manganese ore production, we found that : 1. and it will expand in response to the weak market and manganese ore output to take policy, One quarter of manganese ore production than the same period has increased by 226,000 tonnes (18%) 2. Kang close of the first quarter of manganese ore production than the same period last year, an increase of 65,000 tons (9%), However, Gabon port loading facilities of the Department, the port of shipment of manganese ore a reduced volume.
2006, the world's manganese ore production reached 33.7 million tons in 2005 compared with a decrease of 3%. But pure manganese content in the same reached 11.8 million tons, compared with 2005 growth of 2%. This shows the 2006 low-grade manganese ore output, and high-grade manganese ore output. 2006 BHPB and rehabilitation of the close of manganese ore output for the whole year increased manganese ore volume increase.
India is a production and export of manganese ore of traditional country, but the current largely withdrawn from the manganese ore export market, and moving in imports of manganese alloys direction. In keeping up with China, many other countries are moving to increase imports of manganese ore direction. At present, the Chinese manganese alloy producers have to ensure manganese ore supply is a concern. China in 2006 imported from abroad of 621 million tons of manganese ore, of which 41,000 tons from Brazil, 110,000 tons from India, 58 million tons from Ghana, but still unable to ensure that 07 countries from the three main import volume of manganese ore.
