A mine of a state-owned steel mill in Jilin will conduct maintenance at its pelletising equipment in June. This, combined with site restrictions and the market's bearishness, is likely to reduce output at the mine in June.

In addition, in the past two years, some new mines have been put into operation in the Baishan area, which has also brought an increase in the supply of local concentrates.

However, considering that the mines that resumed production in May still have plans to increase production in June, it is expected that the overall mine capacity utilisation rate in Jilin will still have room to rise in June.
