With a global share of about 2% of the value of globally funded mineral resources fifth-largest mining group behind Brazil&#39;s Vale SA, Australia&#39;s BHP Billiton Group, and British companies Rio Tinto Plc and Anglo American Plc&lt;br /&gt;In May 2010, according to press reports, was known georden that Glencore seeks a merger with Xstrata. Originally founded as a &quot;Marc Rich and Co&quot; and in 1993 was renamed Glencore in May 2011, the company went public. 2011 Glencore has earned a net profit of four billion dollars, the annual turnover was $ 186 billion. According to sales figures Glencore was in 2011 the world number one in the mines, before ArcelorMittal and BHP Billiton Group.&lt;br /&gt;According DERA is Glencore is specialized in the trade of mineral raw materials, energy resources and agricultural commodities. The primary mining Glencore was heavily involved in the mining of cobalt, zinc, tin, lead, copper, silver and gold. In the mining sector Glencore especially in South America, the former Soviet Union and Australia was operating. Major mines are located, the DREA further. Kazakhstan, Australia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Peru, Bolivia, Argentina and Zambia In cobalt, zinc, tin and lead Glencore belongs among the ten largest mining companies outside China.&lt;br /&gt;Glencore already consider to Xstrata a share of about 34%. The history of the mining company Xstrata Plc was founded in 1926 went back to the Südelektra AG.

The IPO in 2002 the Xstrata Plc.&lt;br /&gt;As the DREA mittieelt, Xstrata posted 2011 net income of $ 5.9 billion in annual sales of $ 33.8 billion. The mining company was a major world producer of coal, zinc, lead, chromite, copper, nickel, silver, platinum group elements, molybdenum, gold, vanadium and magnesium.&lt;br /&gt;After a merger, the new entity would have in mine production of the metals zinc, lead, cobalt, silver, chromite, nickel, copper and a leading position.&lt;br /&gt;Mergers generally involve the risk of increasing market concentration and the ability to exercise market power strengthens. The concentration of a market can be quantified by the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index. It is calculated as the sum of the squared shares of a market segment. Values ​​below 1500 are considered safe between 1500 and 2500 prior to a moderate degree of concentration. If the index is above 2500 and has an association, an increase of more than 200 points in the effect of the market is concentrated as a concern.&lt;br /&gt;China is in a range of commodities inter alia of lead and zinc, the world&#39;s largest producer.

In addition to an interdisciplinary team of geoscientists, process engineers, chemists and metallurgists of the TU Freiberg participate the Company &quot;GEOS Freiberg Ingenieurgesellschaft mbH &quot;, the&quot; SAXONIA site development and management mbH &quot;and&quot; AKW Apparate + method GmbH &quot;as consortium partners in the project. The team is supported by Prof. Jens Gutzmer and in the coordination of the project by the Helmholtz Institute Freiberg for Resource Technology. Jens Gutzmer is director of the Institute. The application was initiated by the founder network SAXEED Freiberg and coordinated.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Goal of the research is to develop a process for the economical and environmentally friendly production economy strategically important raw materials from Saxon mining and metallurgical dumps. As a first step in this direction should be more exploratory drilling conducted in autumn 2012 at four locations. A stockpile inventories will be built, in which recorded information about the geographical location, ownership, the origin of the stockpile material, the structure of the heap, the value of matter and the potential of the 20 largest mining dumps are Saxony. In addition to information about possible mining, processing, production technologies and their costs are provided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The cadastre is the extractive industries as a basis for technical and economic decisions. This is intended to be a tool for the transfer of advanced scientific methods in mining companies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the Erzgebirge was for centuries ore mining operation. Which according to the state of the art not to be conveyed or recoverable components of ore mined were stockpiled there, as in the technical language of the miners say, that is mounted on a dump. Especially from the metal mining of the last century there several large heaps (of mountains - waste rock), Spülhalden and washing sand heaps (heaps of fine-grained material, which result from flushing) from the preparation (crushing and separating processes), as well as slag and fly ash deposits smelting. These stockpiles contain finely intergrown minerals, and lower concentrations of the mined raw materials such as tin, zinc, silver, tungsten, and also accompanying elements such as lithium and indium, which were in the recovery in the past nor economically uninteresting. Many of these elements are now of strategic economic importance. Their recovery would be useful if it were possible to concentrate the value components efficiently and economically.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mineralsorecoalbuyers.blogspot.com/feeds/2326698647304746552/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/3065261690159032624/2326698647304746552' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3065261690159032624/posts/default/2326698647304746552'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3065261690159032624/posts/default/2326698647304746552'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mineralsorecoalbuyers.blogspot.com/2012/10/project-wants-to-bring-recovery-of.html' title='Project wants to bring the recovery of valuable materials from mining dumps ahead'/><author><name>TKtrader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06549433364534488671</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3065261690159032624.post-1490965269952275318</id><published>2012-08-05T07:47:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2012-08-05T07:47:22.689-07:00</updated><title type='text'>mineral resources are scarce for buyers</title><content type='html'>Resource scarcity is forcing humanity to reconsider&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recent report by the International Resource Panel of the UNEP draws on substantial research by the Institute for Social Ecology, Klagenfurt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The United Nations Environment Program is today, 9th May 2011 in Geneva, its latest report on resource consumption and environmental consequences before. The authors Marina Fischer-Kowalski (Institute for Social Ecology, Alpen-Adria University, Austria) and Mark Swilling (University of Stellenbosch, South Africa) come to the conclusion that further economic growth at the same rate as before by the cost of resource consumption can walk plant biomass, fossil fuels, metals, industrial materials and building materials.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By 2050, mankind is annually 140 billion tons of minerals, ores consume fossil fuels and biomass per year. This is three times as much as the current consumption. These values ​​are valid, if economic growth continues in the same extent as before the intended use of resources.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a name=&#39;more&#39;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The calculations are based on the Institute for Social Ecology developed using time series of social resources for the 20th Century to the present day. Since 1900, global consumption has increased almost tenfold, while the World GDP has risen over the same period by a factor of 23rd Resource consumption and economic growth have thus indeed decoupled increasingly, resource consumption in industrialized countries has stagnated over the past three decades even, but would also cleared the rest of the world to the excessive consumption of the industrialized nations, as he is currently in countries with rapidly growing economies such as China , India and Brazil already looming, the carrying capacity of the planet beyond. The path of the so-called &quot;contraction and convergence&quot; would be that developed countries halve their consumption of resources by 2050, while the rest of the world catches up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As an alternative to threaten violent conflicts over resources, as they begin to emerge already in some places. &quot;The limits of the planet Earth are brought into proximity clearly visible,&quot; said the authors of the report.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Source: Alpen-Adria-Universität Klagenfurt | Institute for Social Ecology)&lt;br /&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mineralsorecoalbuyers.blogspot.com/feeds/1490965269952275318/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/3065261690159032624/1490965269952275318' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3065261690159032624/posts/default/1490965269952275318'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3065261690159032624/posts/default/1490965269952275318'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mineralsorecoalbuyers.blogspot.com/2012/08/mineral-resources-are-scarce-for-buyers.html' title='mineral resources are scarce for buyers'/><author><name>TKtrader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06549433364534488671</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3065261690159032624.post-9179926342213693273</id><published>2011-12-09T23:00:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2012-07-20T08:15:52.743-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Investors have the fingers off commodities</title><content type='html'>But it certainly will go up again.

investment in the MLIIF - World Mining Fund (ISIN LU0075056555 / WKN&lt;br /&gt;
986 932).&lt;br /&gt;
The equity fund MLIIF - World Mining Fund invests in companies whose&lt;br /&gt;business activities would mainly lie in the promotion or production of&lt;br /&gt;base metals and industrial minerals, but also of gold or other&lt;br /&gt;precious metals. In the fund actually had the &quot;Who&#39;s Who&quot; of the&lt;br /&gt;industry represented. For here the focus was almost 30 percent of the&lt;br /&gt;total investment on the world market leaders such as the Brazilian&lt;br /&gt;CVRD (Companhia Vale do Rio Doce), the Anglo-Australian companies BHP&lt;br /&gt;Billiton and Rio Tinto and Anglo-South African Anglo-American.&lt;br /&gt;
These giants were called diversified very much and would take in many&lt;br /&gt;sub-sectors, market-leading positions. Each of the four set their own&lt;br /&gt;priorities, so that there was in the sum of a balanced mixture of the&lt;br /&gt;major base metals already in these four values. It should be mentioned&lt;br /&gt;that this oligopolistic structures are a guarantee of continued high&lt;br /&gt;prices. In addition, the fund also contains some top professionals&lt;br /&gt;such as Alcoa and Impala Platinum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a name=&#39;more&#39;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Thus, investors would invest in this fund on all major types of raw&lt;br /&gt;materials from the area of ​​basic and precious metals - from gold to&lt;br /&gt;aluminum on iron ore and coal. In addition, but also such exciting raw&lt;br /&gt;materials such as uranium or nickel are represented. Similar to the&lt;br /&gt;oil-service companies in the metals is also opening up new development&lt;br /&gt;areas have been neglected for a long time. Thus meet the increased&lt;br /&gt;demand - especially from Asia - to a barely increased supply, which&lt;br /&gt;have led to price jumps and will continue to lead. The mines and&lt;br /&gt;mining companies would be rewarded by even more for their negligence&lt;br /&gt;in the past. It adds that some steel companies had separated in recent&lt;br /&gt;years from its iron ore mines and now buy their raw materials due to&lt;br /&gt;the skyrocketing prices in world markets expensive for the industry&lt;br /&gt;giants would.&lt;br /&gt;
The MLIIF - World Gold Fund have increased in the past twelve months,&lt;br /&gt;approximately 50 percent of its value over the past three years even&lt;br /&gt;over 250 percent. At the sight of ten years, there were 650 percent&lt;br /&gt;fantastic! The management by Evy Hambro had previously proved&lt;br /&gt;successful hands. One end of the uptrend is in the process still not&lt;br /&gt;in sight. The structures of the market and the continued high demand&lt;br /&gt;would continue to provide sparkling gains in the mines and mining&lt;br /&gt;companies, and so the rates would be set further in the near future.&lt;br /&gt;The fund is not just something for fans of raw materials.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Lower Saxony wants to reduce the budget deficit to zero by 2017. Since the tax helps blessing of Volkswagen. Finance Möllring wants to keep the country must share. But he&#39;s participation at Hannover Airport is in the FAZ interview for discussion.&lt;br /&gt;

24th August 2011 2011-08-24 15:22:56&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mr. Minister, you know what&#39;s happened in the last five minutes?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lower Saxony&#39;s finance minister Finance Minister Hartmut Hartmut Möllring What should have happened?&lt;br /&gt;
The mortgage loan debt of the state of Lower Saxony rose by € 19 000. Every second will be added 62 €. You must be terribly hurt but as finance minister.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a name=&#39;more&#39;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Yes. And of course it hurts even more because we were actually in Lower Saxony on the right track. If the financial crisis did not come 2009, we have reduced the budget deficit to zero a year later.&lt;br /&gt;
Instead, the debt has risen again. Currently there are, depending on reading, 53 to 58 billion euros. How you want to come down there?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Right now the taxes run satisfactorily. We expect this year and next, together with additional revenue of 1.1 billion euros.&lt;br /&gt;
Where does the warm rain of money?&lt;br /&gt;
Scroll&lt;br /&gt;
About&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;* 6.5 billion euros: Volkswagen triples its profit&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;* Lower Saxony is considering selling part of VW shares&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;* &quot;Sparkassen be 10 billion euros in new loans&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;* After HSH debacle: the rotten system of state banks&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;* Merkel to the VW Law: United against the leader of the pack from Stuttgart&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
VW is booming. That&#39;s what we remember of course. The automaker has six works here. The agricultural economy is doing well. Half of the chicken and pork for a third of the whole of Germany come from Lower Saxony.&lt;br /&gt;
But that&#39;s not enough, especially as the economy deteriorate. The Taxpayers&#39; calls to stop the march to the state debt through unpopular measures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We were the first state, which has canceled his official Christmas bonuses. We have cut the county government and carried out an administrative reform. On the other hand, we have increased spending on &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.5starhotelsin.co.za/&quot;&gt;5 star hotels in&lt;/a&gt; education. When the Association of Taxpayers, the population convinced that we need no education, we save a lot of money.&lt;br /&gt;
The Court has warned that 26 000 places would be degraded in the provincial administration, to keep the bureaucracy affordable, because of the demographic development.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This number is not traceable.&lt;br /&gt;
The country has 180 000 employees, you do not see any action?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In administrative expenditures per capita as well we are compared with the other provinces.&lt;br /&gt;
Once again: What do you do to reduce debt?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We have a clear line. We want to reduce the debt every year, so it is at zero in 2017. We have proposed a constitutional amendment.&lt;br /&gt;
This also makes exceptions in which soften the debt brake, which you have committed themselves so well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No. If we increase during an economic crisis or other emergency, the extraordinary debt yet again, we must also decide on an &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mortgageshomeloans.co.za/&quot;&gt;mortgage amortization&lt;/a&gt; schedule for these loans.&lt;br /&gt;
What the opposition says about this proposal? For a constitutional amendment to require the approval of the SPD.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The talks between the factions run. The ban has worked out a debt commission headed by Oettinger and Struck. Struck is known from Lower Saxony and member of the SPD. It would be funny if the SPD would deny the constitutional amendment here in Massachusetts.&lt;br /&gt;
Lower Saxony owns 20 percent of VW shares. Even after the recent price slide, you can redeem for premium loose package including more than 10 billion euros - and make himself immortal as a debt-lowering drugs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
VW is untouchable in Lower Saxony. The Group is the largest employer in the country. And that he should stay.&lt;br /&gt;
The VW is also when you sell the land share. BMW also still produced in Bavaria, although the Free State is not involved in the company.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
VW has a different history than BMW. The VW&#39;s share fell to Lower end of the fifties in the womb. Through our statutory blocking minority, we can prevent plant closures or relocation office.&lt;br /&gt;
Are you afraid to be punished with a phase-out of voters&#39; VW?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yes. The emotional ties to Volkswagen is very strong. The axis is very low in VW.&lt;br /&gt;
Lower Saxony holds 26.5 percent and the steel group Salzgitter. Why?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Salzgitter had already been taken over or shut down, if we were not there on board. Coal and ore must always first be trucked. For this transport, the Rhine is more favorable than the Midland Canal.&lt;br /&gt;
Their share from 35 percent at Hanover airport, you could sell.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This proportion is in fact not written in stone. Finally, an airport can not move easily. But I do not know if anyone is interested at all.&lt;br /&gt;
And then there&#39;s the North German state bank. Fusion partners complacent?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We have no natural partner for the Nord LB. The only national bank that would suit us would Helaba. Which will not. And we also do not want.&lt;br /&gt;
Why not?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Helaba sits in Frankfurt. As you can imagine, where the fall after a merger decisions would be. Certainly not in Hanover.&lt;br /&gt;
And HSH Nordbank?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
HSH has two drawbacks. First, where the investment banker Christopher Flowers is committed. As would be our co-owners, the savings banks did not participate for reasons of principle. Second, a merger may face an enormous risk concentrations. Nord LB and HSH are among the five largest &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.transportlogisticservices.co.za/&quot;&gt;logistic services&lt;/a&gt; ship financiers of the world. Then we would not 2000 but 4000 ships in the bank. That no one wants.&lt;br /&gt;
After the planned capital increase, the proportion of Lower Saxony to the north of LB is currently 42 percent is expected to increase to 57 percent. This will be reflected in the supervisory board?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will get a more representative on the supervisory board at the expense of Lower Saxony&#39;s savings bank association.&lt;br /&gt;
If the Nord LB to finally become the plaything of politics?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We have no national bank, to arrange the finance minister or the prime minister can, that this or that company is to get a loan. That would simply infidelity. We also want to reduce our share of long-term back and return to a balance between savings banks and countries. This will happen because the bank buys shares and feeds us.&lt;br /&gt;
Bavarian Governor Seehofer has agreed with Baden-Württemberg&#39;s Prime Minister Kretschmann on the formation of a &quot;Federalism Commission III&quot;, to develop core principles for reform of the fiscal equalization. Do you want to get involved?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No. I&#39;m reluctant in commissions, of which I expect no result.&lt;br /&gt;

But every third company is doing nothing against the resulting risks. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They are found in monitors, cell phones, magnets, electric motors and batteries: The &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.blogger.com/www.mineralbuyers.co.za/minerals/rare-earth/&quot;&gt;rare earth minerals&lt;/a&gt; called. The materials are also called &quot;spice metals&quot; because they are used as spices in small doses - also decide the success. About 97 percent of world production of rare earths come from China. Since the country has restricted the export, the industrial nations tremble. They fear running out of their high-tech industrial commodities. &lt;br /&gt;
The Swiss industry is affected by the problem. This shows a previously unpublished survey by the Association of Swiss engineering, electrical and metal industry (Swissmem). About a fifth of the 1,000 member companies work in one form or another with commodities from the group of rare earths.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a name=&#39;more&#39;&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
But the problem of shortage of raw materials is limited by no means limited to the rare earths, the survey shows. Up to three quarters of the Swiss industrial companies have a long list of commodities depend, is the Swissmem as &quot;critical raw materials.&quot; This group includes such materials, the poor can be replaced by other substances and are degraded only in certain countries. Currently, these raw materials are indeed hardly a problem for Swiss companies dar. &quot;But it could quickly become a problem if there is any shortage,&quot; says Jean-Philippe Kohl, Vice Director and Head of Swissmem economic policy. &lt;br /&gt;
A precarious situation feared the Swiss industrial companies particularly in raw materials such as chromium, molybdenum, magnesium, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mineralbuyers.co.za/minerals/tungsten/&quot;&gt;tungsten&lt;/a&gt;, graphite and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mineralbuyers.co.za/minerals/cobalt/&quot;&gt;cobalt&lt;/a&gt;. Half of the 1000 Swissmem members needs at least one of these commodities. Although this process the company does not usually directly. The materials put in prefabricated construction products which they import from Vorfabrikanten. But the risk remains: Where in the world from one of these scarce resources, are still in the Swiss industry&#39;s wheels. &lt;br /&gt;
Many Swiss companies seem to be that risk but not to be aware of. &quot;A third of companies use the critical commodities make no effort to contain the risks involved,&quot; said Kohl. &lt;br /&gt;
Possibilities exist: firms can develop common procurement strategies. How does it shows the steel company Schmolz + Bickenbach. This is with the giants Arcelor and Thyssen in Germany in France established a purchasing company, in order to secure nickel. &quot;We get better quality and yet at better prices,&quot; said Chief Financial Officer Axel Euchner. Companies can avoid shortages of raw materials and by using the sensitive materials less or not - but that requires much research effort. &lt;br /&gt;
&quot;Companies need to realize that they are in a dependency that can be exacerbated in the longer term,&quot; warns Kohl. So will Swissmem awareness not only firms but also brings in a policy. &quot;It is important that the federal government committed to an open and non-discriminatory trade in commodities,&quot; said Kohl. He speaks to a fear of many observers: that China is secure, the U.S. or the EU, the stocks and small countries be left out. However, Kohl shares this fear. &quot;If the efforts of the EU and U.S. in the conflict over critical resources are that export restrictions of all kinds are reduced, this will also benefit the Switzerland of free flow of commodities across borders,&quot; said Kohl. &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Office for National Economic Supply, the issue critical commodities in the eye. &quot;We will look at the results of the survey Swissmem accurately and then decide on further action,&quot; says branch manager Ruedi Rytz. Whether it makes sense to set up as a counter measure duty bearings for rare materials, but needs to be clarified further.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mineralsorecoalbuyers.blogspot.com/feeds/2880807821479307120/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/3065261690159032624/2880807821479307120' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3065261690159032624/posts/default/2880807821479307120'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3065261690159032624/posts/default/2880807821479307120'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mineralsorecoalbuyers.blogspot.com/2010/12/programmed-crisis.html' title='The programmed crisis'/><author><name>TKtrader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06549433364534488671</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3065261690159032624.post-7106352993952986692</id><published>2010-08-09T06:28:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-09T06:28:58.880-07:00</updated><title type='text'>supply of minerals</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style=&quot;font-family:times new roman,new york,times,serif;font-size:12pt&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;The previous discussion in this chapter of political availability and growing resource nationalism is relevant here. If concentrated in the hands of a&lt;br&gt;small number of companies, supply may be prone to restriction from opportunistic behavior by companies with market power. Market power may&lt;br&gt;allow a powerful firm to raise prices opportunistically to take advantage of a weak &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.buyersellers.co.za/&quot;&gt;buyer&lt;/a&gt;. The Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) provides a measure of market concentration or power and is used by the U.S. Department of Justice when investigating possible monopolistic behavior. This index is the sum of the squared market shares of all firms in a particular market—for example, an industry with three firms with market shares of 40, 40, and 20 percent would have  an index of 402 + 402 + 202 = 3600. Likely index scores range from about 1 to 10,000: the greater the concentration in a market, the higher the index number (and vice versa). The U.S. Department of Justice considers markets with index numbers between 1000 and&lt;br&gt;1800 to be moderately concentrated and those with numbers greater than 1800 to be concentrated. If a merger leads to an increase of more than 100&lt;br&gt;&lt;span&gt;points in the index, the Department of Justice presumptively has concerns about possible anticompetitive consequences of the merger (U.S. Department of Justice, &quot;Horizontal Merger Guidelines,&quot; available at &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://usdoj&quot;&gt;http://usdoj&lt;/a&gt;. gov/atr/public/guidelines/horiz_book/hmg1.html; accessed June 21, 2007).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;Unfortunately, lack of sufficient data on company market shares made it impossible for the committee to calculate and evaluate HHIs for the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mineralbuyers.co.za/&quot;&gt;minerals  &lt;/a&gt;examined in this study. Fourth, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mineralbuyers.co.za/&quot;&gt;supply of minerals&lt;/a&gt; that come significantly from by-product production may be fragile or risky. The key idea here is that the availability of a by-product is determined largely by availability of the main product (e.g., gallium as a by-product of bauxite mining). Thus, by-product production is relatively insensitive in the short term to changes in demand for the by-product. An increase in the demand for and, in turn, the price of a by-product may not result in significant additions to production capacity for the by-product. Likewise, a significant drop in demand for a by-product also may not result in significantly lower by-product production.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;              </content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mineralsorecoalbuyers.blogspot.com/feeds/7106352993952986692/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/3065261690159032624/7106352993952986692' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3065261690159032624/posts/default/7106352993952986692'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3065261690159032624/posts/default/7106352993952986692'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mineralsorecoalbuyers.blogspot.com/2010/08/supply-of-minerals.html' title='supply of minerals'/><author><name>TKtrader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06549433364534488671</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3065261690159032624.post-2207369807770365071</id><published>2010-07-06T07:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-06T07:39:54.840-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="commodity"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="minerals"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="summaries"/><title type='text'>mineral commodity summaries</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/Mineral-Commodity-Summaries-Geological-Survey/dp/141132076X?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;tag=suppliersdire-20&amp;amp;link_code=bil&amp;amp;camp=213689&amp;amp;creative=392969&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Mineral Commodity Summaries, 2008&quot; src=&quot;http://ws.amazon.com/widgets/q?MarketPlace=US&amp;amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;amp;WS=1&amp;amp;Format=_SL160_&amp;amp;ASIN=141132076X&amp;amp;tag=suppliersdire-20&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=suppliersdire-20&amp;amp;l=bil&amp;amp;camp=213689&amp;amp;creative=392969&amp;amp;o=1&amp;amp;a=141132076X&quot; style=&quot;border: medium none ! important; margin: 0px ! important; padding: 0px ! important;&quot; width=&quot;1&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

This econometric study covers the world outlook for silvery iron,  ferro manganese, manganese metals, silicomanganese and ferrospiegeleisen  across more than 200 countries. For each year reported, estimates are  given for the latent demand, or potential industrial earnings (P.I.E.),  for the country in question (in millions of U.S. dollars), the percent  share the country is of the region and of the globe. These comparative  benchmarks allow the reader to quickly gauge a country in comparison to others.  Using econometric models which project fundamental economic dynamics  within each country and across countries, latent demand estimates are  created. This report does not discuss the specific players in the market  serving the latent demand, nor specific details at the product level.  The study also does not consider short-term cyclical behavior that might  affect realized sales. The study, therefore, is strategic in nature,  taking an aggregate and long-run view, irrespective of the players or  products involved. This study does not report actual sales data (which  are simply unavailable, in a comparable or consistent manner in  virtually all of the 230 countries of the world). This study gives,  however, my estimates for the worldwide latent demand, or the P.I.E.,  for silvery iron, ferro manganese, manganese metal, silico manganese and  ferrospiegeliron. It also shows how the P.I.E. is divided across the  world&#39;s regional and national markets for ferrous metals. For each country, I also show my  estimates of how the P.I.E. grows over time (positive or negative  growth). In order to make these estimates, a multi-stage methodology was  employed that is often taught in courses on international strategic  planning at graduate schools of business.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mineralsorecoalbuyers.blogspot.com/feeds/4996158425275511550/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/3065261690159032624/4996158425275511550' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3065261690159032624/posts/default/4996158425275511550'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3065261690159032624/posts/default/4996158425275511550'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mineralsorecoalbuyers.blogspot.com/2010/06/international-ferro-manganese-buyers.html' title='international ferro manganese buyers'/><author><name>TKtrader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06549433364534488671</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3065261690159032624.post-6183818449879860725</id><published>2010-06-24T11:15:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-24T11:15:01.021-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="coal-buyers"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="steam-coal"/><title type='text'>coal buyers</title><content type='html'>Does anyone have &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mineralbuyers.co.za/43/steam-coal-buyers/&quot;&gt;steam coal&lt;/a&gt; for sale to international buyers?

&lt;br /&gt;
The books text does cover what is meant by a cost-effective mining scheme, the economics of information, knowledge, and the procedures for the rational evaluation of more or less uncertain projects. It defines mineral from a business perspective and covers the influence of scheduling on once mineral reserves. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Discounted cash flow techniques, which is one the most widely used evaluation techniques for financial decision making, are covered in detail. The assumption of the use of spreadsheets is a unique feature of this book. Mining Economics and Strategy offers solutions to the problem that many mining projects fail to achieve expectations because of their inability to adapt to change. A new method is explained that allows calculation of capital that is &quot;at risk&quot; from capital that is not at risk. This promises significant advancements in the way that investments are made and capital is valued in the industry. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The book concludes with a brief review of the historical setting and knowledge difficulties in any mining-related investment, and how these issues might also influence the success of investments in the future.&lt;br /&gt;
