Analysis on the Market Space of China's Comprehensive Utilization of Mineral Resources in 2017

After 60 years of development of metallurgical industry, China has become a big country in steel and nonferrous metals in the world. However, the technological ideas have not changed significantly for decades. We have always adhered to the policy of refined materials and used high-quality raw materials and ores for smelting production. As a result, more than half of China's main iron ore raw materials need to be imported, and a large number of low-grade, difficult to mine and beneficiate composite concomitant ore resources stored in China are difficult to use directly.
