China refined tin output dropped 10.6% in April

China’s refined tin output decreased 10.6% from March to 10,730 mt in April, and is expected to extend its decline to around 10,500 mt in May.

SHANGHAI, May 9 (SMM) – Refined tin output in China shrank last month, propelled by a drop in the southwestern province—Yunnan. The maintenance-driven closure of some smelter also lowered refined tin production last month.

Production of refined tin in other regions, including Jiangxi province in east China, was generally stable last month.

China’s refined tin output decreased 10.6% from March to 10,730 mt in April, and is expected to extend its decline to around 10,500 mt in May due to continued tightness in supply of raw materials including ore and scrap.
