Manganese mines in the Xiushan area suspended at the start of December, which forced some local manganese producers to purchase ore beyond the region.
Higherd costs drove a manganese producer to cut output to 60 mt per day.
Output recovery at mines is set to ease tight ore supply across the region and lower costs at manganese producers.
