A study conducted by consulting company Roskill. Myanmar over the last decade has become a major supplier of tin. This refers to in the world. And it happened quite suddenly. Its record result was in 2016. He was 48 thousand tonnes of tin. However, after the peak, it all went down. Last year the figure had fallen to 22 thousand tons of metal. Analysts expect that in coming years the situation will not change. Myanmar will continue to be not-so-large supply. But it still remains the largest supplier of tin in the world.
Brazil and Peru also special changes will not occur. The current level of production of tin they will keep. The reason for this is the difficulty on the largest fields. At the present time has deteriorated the quality of the ore. Growth of production volume only in the DR Congo. There is a rich mine of Bisie. He is already showing good results. In the second half of 2019 is projected to expand its capacity. So the figure will be 10 thousand tons per year. Difficulties with the supply is not particularly affect the world’s consumption.
