Tin premiums on LME prices in Europe are typically US$200-500 per tonne higher than in Asia, indicating an opportunity for increased refined production in Europe. Vertical integration on a national scale is increasingly being targeted in the tin industry, with existing ore and concentrate export bans in Indonesia and Uganda, and ‘first refusal’ agreements for smelters in Bolivia. On a company scale, there is growing interest from miners to construct smelters, particularly in Europe, Africa, and Australia where there is little primary refined tin production." - International Tin Association Ltd. #Elementos #ELT #tin #MiningNews #Spain #LME

The option of having a copper smelter-refinery in Papua New Guinea, especially at Vanimo, Wewak, Madang or Lae, needs to be considered seriously. Apart from those in China, Japan, South Korea and elsewhere, the closest one we have is Glencore-operated copper smelter-refinery facility at Townsville in North Queensland, Australia. OK Tedi closes in 2050. Wafi-Golpu and Frieda River are now in permitting stage. Yandera and Panguna are two major projects that will produce copper soon (in 10-20 years). Other copper-bearing mineral systems such as Nong River, Tifalmin, Mt Bini, Kili Teke, Kokofimpa (Bilimoia Area), Ipi River and April River (Niksek), amongst others, may be progressed with time to development . #Copper_Smelter #Copper_Refinery #Copper_Cathode_Plates #Ok_Tedi #Wafi_Golpu #Frieda_River #Yandera #Panguna #Nong_River #Tifalmin #Mt_Bini #Kili_Teke #Bilimoia_Area

The IABC welcomes our new Corporate Sponsor Nickel Industries Limited (NIC). Nickel Industries Limited (NIC) is an ASX-listed company which owns a portfolio of mining and low-cost downstream nickel processing assets in Indonesia. The Company has a long history in Indonesia, with controlling interests in the world-class Hengjaya Mine, as well as four rotary kiln electric furnace (RKEF) projects which produce nickel matte for the electric vehicle (EV) supply chain and nickel pig iron (NPI) for the stainless-steel industry. Having established itself as a globally significant producer of NPI, the Company is now rapidly transitioning its production to focus on the EV battery supply chain - recently, the Company has acquired a 10% interest in the Huayue Nickel Cobalt (HNC) HPAL project, adding mixed hydroxide precipitate (MHP) to its product portfolio. Nickel Industries is now embarking on its next transformative step, investing in Excelsior Nickel Cobalt (ENC), a next-generation HPAL project capable of producing MHP, nickel sulphate and nickel cathode. ENC is expected to produce approximately 72,000 tonnes of nickel metal per annum, diversifying the Company’s production and reducing the Company’s carbon emissions profile - reflecting the strong commitment to sustainable operations.

Vinacomin invests in bauxite production Vinacomin has issued a statement that it’s going to invest ca. of $7.3 billion to increase production of aluminum production. This decision is due to the rising country demand for the metal. The production will be increased in two bauxite exploration projects and five refining projects. According to the company, the production in the Nhan Co Alumina complex will be increased from 650 tonnes to 2 million tons of metal, and in Dak Nong complex the bauxite-alumina-aluminum production should achieve ca. 2 million tons of alumina and 0.5-1 million tons of aluminum a year. The Dak Nong bauxite deposit reserve is estimated at 5.4 billion tons. #mining, #miningindustry, #aluminum, #alumina, #vietnam

Freeport McMoran expects to export 900,000 mt of copper concentrate from Indonesia in 2H2024, unnamed sources told Reuters earlier this week. Freeport’s export license with the country was set to expire this month but has since been extended after positive talks with the Indonesian government. In 2020, Indonesia banned raw material exports but allowed companies such as Freeport to maintain export quotas while their smelters were under construction. Freeport’s Indonesian copper smelter is set to open this month but won’t reach full capacity until later in the year.

In this article from The Wire China, CRU's Angela Durrant highlights the reasons why Chinese companies are able to stay afloat and expand their production and market share despite the price crash on several battery minerals. "They have labour and ore on tap," says Angela. "The original reason to go to Indonesia was because of cheap power. It has its own captive coal supply...which is one of the key drivers in keeping costs down." Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/eHawQq5D #Nickel #BatteryMinerals #MiningAndMetals
