Base Metals Mining in Chile to 2020 - A Focus on the Multi-Billion Dollar Copper Industry
M2 - Thu Nov 06, 8:50AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7kv7fd/base_metals) has announced the addition of the "Base Metals Mining in Chile to 2020 - a Focus on the Copper Industry" report to their offering. Base Metals Mining in Chile to 2020 - a Focus on the Copper Industry comprehensively covers the country's historical and forecast data on base metals (copper) mine production, consumption and trade to 2020 and reserves by geographical region. The report also includes drivers and restraints affecting the industry, profiles of major base metals mining companies, information on the major active, exploration and development projects and regulations governing the industry. Chile's copper mine production in 2013 was 5.8 million tonnes (Mt), with the majority originating from the Antofagasta region. Copper mine production is projected to increase over the forecast period, with commencements of new projects and expansions at existing mines. The country's copper mining industry is mostly export-oriented and domestic consumption is very low. Key Highlights: - The mining industry is the mainstay of the Chilean economy, with copper being the most important commodity. Significant investments worth US$112.5 billion, of which copper mining accounts for 30 projects valued at US$86.7 billion, are expected to drive the copper mining industry over the forecast period (2013-2021). - However, falling ore grades, increasing depth of mines, scarcity of skilled mining labor and severe power shortages are major challenges faced by the copper mining industry in Chile. - New copper projects and capacity additions at operating mines will help Chilean copper mine production to grow over the forecast period. Codelco and other operators aim to commence a number of copper projects. The Sierra Gorda project of KGHM Polska Miedz SA, Sumitomo Metal Mining Co. Ltd and Sumitomo Corporation, with production capacity of 220,000t, and Pan Pacific Copper Co. Ltd's Caserones project began operations in 2014. - The mining industry is Chile's largest consumer of electricity, and consumption increased during the last decade; and with upcoming projects, the government predicts severe power shortages by 2017. Energy costs in Chile are high and around 33.3% of demand comes from mining.

Non-ferrous Metal Casting Market in China 2014 Report With Forecasts to 2018
M2 - Tue Feb 25, 3:40AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/bzs2d2/nonferrous_metal) has announced the addition of the "Non-ferrous Metal Casting Market in China 2014-2018" report to their offering. The analysts forecast the Non-ferrous Metal Casting market in China to grow at a CAGR of 8.58 percent over the period 2013-2018. Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: The steady shift from ferrous metal casting to non-ferrous metal casting is one of the major trends being witnessed in the Non-ferrous Metal Casting market in China. Several organizations across various industries including Automotive, Electrical and Electronics, Construction, and Engineering Machinery have started developing lightweight products in order to improve the quality and reduce the overall weight of their products. For instance, several auto components which are traditionally manufactured using ferrous metal casting materials are being steadily replaced by non-ferrous metal casting materials such as aluminum, zinc, and magnesium. Further, several automotive manufacturers are steadily moving from the deployment of cast iron engine blocks to the deployment of aluminum engine blocks. This is because aluminum-cast engine blocks are sturdier than cast iron die casting products under high horsepower. One of the major drivers is the increasing adoption of aluminum casting in the Automotive and Construction industries. Several vehicle and machine components such as cylinder heads, transmission housings, crank cases, engine blocks, bearings, suspension and bodywork parts, and wheels are manufactured using aluminum casting. A major challenge in the market is the lack of effective product differentiation. The market has the presence of several local and international vendors; however, they offer almost identical products and therefore need to develop an edge over their competitors.
