August domestic zinc production rose 7.8% decline in zinc concentrate production

Oct. 7, 2010 - PRLog -- According to data released Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, in August 2010 the domestic production of 434,100 tons of refined zinc, the chain increased 7.8%, 1-August cumulative production of 3.33 million tons, an increase of 23.81%. The increase in the chain the one hand, the stimulus from rising prices: Shanghai zinc price in July was 15,200 yuan / ton, in August it reached 16,700 yuan / ton,neodymium fluoride wholesaler, thereby stimulating the supply of refined zinc; the other hand, the end of smelting enterprises are in maintenance, operating rate increase. Based on 42 focus on the domestic refining business research to understand, these enterprises started in August, the average rate of 78.65%, 68.36% higher than July's increase of 10 percentage points.

Substantial growth year on year in August before for two reasons: First, prices. 0 1-8 months this year, an average price of 17,049 yuan zinc / ton over last year's 12,464 yuan / ton, up 4,585 yuan / ton, 36.79% of the price of space so enthusiastic smelting production,neodymium fluoride supplier, resulting in increased production. Second, the smelting enterprises to expand production capacity gradually, for example, 10 million tons of gold Lingnan new expansion project put into operation in the end of June, also contributed to the gradual growth of output.

Overall, the zinc production chain from 7 months instead of 8 months to achieve reduction of chain growth,neodymium fluoride, however, the output of zinc concentrate is the downward trend continued in July.

The first half of this year, with the significant increase in mine production and zinc concentrate production increased month by month, of which the highest in June, 36 tons. But in June, the 7-8 consecutive monthly decrease, especially the chain in August, the chain increased zinc production, and zinc concentrate production was reduced. According to production data released by Association, August domestic production of 308,500 tons of zinc concentrate, the chain of 2%.
