SMM News: recently, through customer feedback, Hegang Tangshan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. 40MnB5 automobile stabilizer steel is well used, and its properties meet the demand and reach the international advanced level. It marks that Tangshan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. has become the first domestic enterprise to successfully develop 40MnB5 high-level automobile stabilizing rod steel.

Tangshan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. continues to focus on the "two structures" re-optimization, aim at the market, capture cutting-edge information, constantly improve work standards, and strive to create "world first", "domestic first" and "singles champion" products in the field of product segmentation. In the process of communicating with a well-known auto parts company, the marketing team learned that European automotive stabilizer steel has been gradually transformed from 34MnB5 to sophisticated 40MnB5, and the product is in the stage of research and development. In the face of the current situation that 40MnB5 automotive stabilizer rod steel is still blank in China, in order to catch up with and surpass the international level, the technical team of Tangshan stainless Steel Co., Ltd. of Hegang took nearly 3 months to complete the research and development of high-grade stabilizer rod steel 40MnB5 with the help of the development advantages of 26MnB5 and 34MnB5 automotive stabilizer rod. In the process of research and development, the company's technical team overcame the disadvantage that there was no foreign materials for comparison and technical content blockade, and strictly controlled the hot rolling process, decarburized layer control and other key processes through various technical means, 40MnB5 research and development was successful, filling the gap of this steel grade in China.

Peru sees 1 million t/y copper output boost within five to six years
Peru's Energy and Mines Minister Guillermo Shinno said the country expects to add about 1 million tonnes of annual copper production within five to six years through new mining projects. The world's third-largest copper producer anticipates 2026 output of 2.5 to 2.7 million tonnes, roughly unchanged from 2023 as declining ore grades and recurring social conflicts weigh on supply. The newly elected government is seeking to reverse that stagnation by cutting red tape; in the two months since taking office, mining companies have stepped up engagement with the ministry. Shinno said officials have identified 27 permits that could be eliminated from roughly 100 mining-sector requirements, without lowering environmenta
