The two companies will also improve their operations accordingly according to market conditions.

According to SMM, India is one of the main destination countries for China's metal manganese exports. In the second quarter, due to the gradual relief of the epidemic, India gradually resumed the production of steel mills in various regions. It is expected that domestic metal manganese exports may gradually increase. India, as one of the main export destination countries of metal manganese in China, imported 2804 tons of metal manganese in April, a decrease of 61.85% compared with March. If steel mills in various regions of India resume production later, Or will increase the demand for metal manganese.
