China Tungsten Industry Report, 2010 - by ResearchInChina


China boasts rich tungsten resources with 60% of the world s tungsten reserves. Its output of tungsten concentrate, APT, tungsten powder, tungsten carbide, and tungsten filament as well as its tungsten trade volume ranked first in the world in 2009. As tungsten is a strategic resource, China has implemented the quota of total tungsten exploitation amount since 2002 to restrict the exploitation of tungsten. The quota of total exploitation amount of tungsten concentrate (65% WO3) is 80,000 tons in 2010, which is 11,445 tons or 16.69% more than the 68,555 tons in 2009.

Although China has implemented years of total exploitation amount control on tungsten, the actual output has always exceeded the quota in each of the years. For example, China s tungsten concentrate (65% WO3) output was 104,800 tons in 2009, which was 36,000 tons more than the quota.
