市場調査報告書：世界の天然黒鉛の産出量とその市場

Read the definitive report on the global natural graphite industry, its markets and its future

Recovery in graphite production

China is the principle graphite producer, accounting for 40% of the world' s output during recent years and 50% of amorphous production in 2000. India is another leading producer, accounting for 15% of world production over the last decade. The other majors are Brazil (7%), Mexico (6%) and North Korea (6%) Thus, five countries account for 75% of world production.

Given favourable market conditions, production may increase in the future, particularly from Brazil, Canada, China, India and Mexico. New production capacity of 120,000tpa could be added, around half of which could be destined for battery-making. Successful exploration, mine expansions and company acquisitions are expected to result in increased graphite output in the coming decade, provided that markets can be developed to sustain the new production. This new capacity would replace the " loss" of 100Ktpa flake graphite production resulting from project failures and expected mine closures.

The key trends, issues and developments in the market are now analysed in this major new report from Roskill. It provides a clear insight into all areas of the industry and an authoritative analysis of the prospects for the future.

SOURCES AND METHODOLOGY

This report is the result of an extensive programme of research by Roskill analysts. They have conducted a close appraisal of information from a wide variety of sources, including governments, trade associations, company sources, official organisations, trade journals and technical literature.

Information gathering is only the first step in preparing a report. The data is then extensively analysed so that the finished report provides a comprehensive insight into the industry today, as well as top-level analysis of the long-term prospects.
