Event Details
General Informations
Manganese
and Chrome are important metals for the modern economy. These are essential raw
materials for steel-making, ferro-alloys as well as other products. With
abundant resources, there is huge potential in the Indian manganese / chrome
ore and ferro-alloy sector. The National
Steel Policy of India, 2017, aspires to achieve 300 million tonnes of
steelmaking capacity by 2030. This would translate into additional consumption
of manganese and chrome ore other than iron ore as essential raw material for
steel making. Similarly, ferro-alloys are one of the important inputs in the
manufacture of alloys and special steel. The growth of ferro-alloy industry is
thus directly linked with the development of the iron and steel industry in
India.
India
is the seventh largest producer of manganese ore in the world, with abundant
resources to the tune of 495 million tonnes. During 2021-22, the annual
production of manganese ore in the country was 2.71 million tonnes of manganese
ore. Meanwhile, imports have been increasing significantly. From a level of 2.84
million tonnes during 2019-20, imports have gone upto a level of 6.50 million
tonnes during 2021-22. To survive in the increasingly competitive global market
and create value for the stakeholders, producers need to focus on productivity,
technology and quality improvements, as well as aggressive exploration
strategies for locating and defining additional reserves. All these necessitate
huge investment as well as induction of state-of-the-art exploration, mining,
processing and metallurgical technologies in the Indian manganese ore industry.
India
is the third largest producer of chrome ore in the world, with domestic
production rising from 2.88 million tonnes in 2020-21 to 3.88 million tonnes in
2021-22. Resources of chrome ore in the country are estimated at 344 million
tonnes. India historically has been an important player in the global chrome
ore market. With a focused and progressive market development strategy, it is
possible for India to improve its market share and tap new markets.
India
has been a major producer of ferro-alloys globally. During the year 2021-22,
production of ferro-chrome was about 1 million tonnes. The import of ferroalloys
was about 0.60 million tonnes during 2021-22.This is despite a total production
capacity of 5.15 million tonnes of the ferro-alloy industry in the country. Clearly,
there is a huge competition from the global market so the industry must utilize
its full potential and rise to new levels with advanced technological
competitiveness, utilization of green technology and productivity. The domestic ferro-alloys industry needs to
be promoted through a mix of progressive market development strategies and
suitable fiscal measures to offset imports.
This event will provide a unique platform for the
manganese / chrome ore and alloy producers, consumers, technology suppliers, as
well as others to discuss technological developments, ESG aspect, legislative
issues, and market trends. Producers, consumers, buyers and traders will have
the opportunity to discuss and review supply and demand related issues in open
forums and private meetings. Suppliers of exploration, mining processing
equipment and metallurgical technologies will have an opportunity to make
presentations on manganese/chrome ore and alloy to the stakeholders.
