Otmane El Rhazi : Indonesian tin smelter slashes output; doubts raised on industry quota

Otmane El Rhazi from Mining Weekly | Ferrous Metals Home.

Major Indonesian tin smelter PT Refined Bangka Tin (RBT) said it will slash output in April and May following a slump in prices of the solder material, although a key export group raised doubts about an industry wide effort to curb exports. Privately owned RBT will produce 200 t or less in May and 420 t in April, compared with an average of about 1 000 t to 1 200 t per month under normal conditions, company Petrus Tjandra told Reuters.
