From an international point of view, the applications of tungsten in national economy are mainly as follows:
(1) Tungsten processing materials
Tungsten processing materials include wires, rods, plates and so on. The international development directions of tungsten processing materials are high technical content, particularly high specifications and specific shapes. Such as reliable anti-seismic and sag resistance tungsten wire, tungsten filaments used for special light bulbs, tungsten alloy wire used for electric image tubes, ultra-high precision tungsten narrowbands, high purity and ultra-high purity tungsten used for VLSI Sub microspheres. Currently, the largest tungsten products abroad amounted to 1.2 tons, while China is only 0.2 tons.
(2) tungsten-based heavy alloy
Tungsten-based heavy alloy is a class of tungsten – based group (85 to 99% amount of tungsten-containing), which adds Ni, Cu, Fe, Co, Mo, Cr and other elements in the alloy, known as tungsten heavy alloy or high-density tungsten alloy. Tungsten-based heavy alloy is widely used in the military industry and civilian industry, such as penetrators and cluster bombs in military industry, the anti-X-ray and G-ray shielding materials in medical industry, high-density tungsten alloy vibrator and electrode materials in civilian industry, etc. Tungsten-based heavy alloy consumption in developed countries accounts for about 10% of the total tungsten consumption, the United States is the world's largest producer and consumer of tungsten based heavy alloy, its production has reached more than 1,000 tons per year.

This is part of its joint venture with Aurum Mining.
The best results from the eight holes included 9.2 metres at 2.09 grams per tonne of the precious metal from a depth of 99.8 metres, 6 metres 1.87 grams and 2 metres at 10.18 grams.
The company’s flagship asset is Barruecopardo, a world-class tungsten project in Spain, which is slated to come into production later this year.
Initially producing 12% of non-Chinese world concentrate supply, operations to be expanded to become a major long-life mine.

PERTH - tungsten miner Hazelwood Resources on Wednesday reported that first saleable product from its ATC ferrotungsten project, in Vietnam, was expected during the March quarter of this year.
Around 75% of the requisite feedstock for furnace start-up had now been ordered, and final negotiations for the balance of the feedstock was in progress, with the material expected to arrive on-site during February and March.
Stage 1 of the ATC plant has a nameplate capacity of 4 000 t/y of ferrotungsten alloy, equivalent to 3 000 t/y of contained tungsten. A second stage, if completed, would have sufficient capacity to supply around 25% of the world’s ferrotungsten.
The ATC ferrotungsten project is the largest-capacity plant outside of China.
Hazelwood said on Wednesday that the site laboratory was currently being commissioned and newly recruited personnel were receiving training. Production workforce recruitment was continuing.
Meanwhile, drilling had resumed at Hazelwood’s Cookes Creek project, in East Pilbara, targeting electromagnetic conductors that were considered prospective for nickel sulphide and base metals.
Drilling results from a campaign conducted near the Anomaly Hill nickel sulphide discovery were expected shortly.

Ice Fishing - Tungsten Style Ice Jigs Work Best in Deeper Water

The recent arctic blast of cold weather has increased ice thickness on the small, shallow lakes and bays. These areas have up to 10 inches of solid ice. When fishing the large, deep lakes, caution must be used. Bring along safety equipment including: spud bar, ice picks, throw cushion with rope and a life jacket. There are still open water areas on these lakes with the windy conditions.
Bluegill fishing was hit and miss on the area lakes. Weeds in 6 to 12 feet of water will hold bluegills, along with deep water 20 to 35 feet. Anglers have reported finding them tight to the bottom. Light 1-pound or 2-pound test line, small No. 14 to No. 16 sized ice jigs, and a spring bobber are a must to finesse bluegills to bite. Wigglers have been the best bait to use for finicky fish. Wax worms, red and white spikes, mousies and ice plastics have also produced. Tungsten style ice jigs will work best in deeper water, while Ratfinkees, Marmooskas, Moon jigs, and tear drops took fish in shallower water with the slower drop.

Internet retailer JustMensRings is set to make its daytime television debut on legendary long-running soap opera Days of Our Lives. Agents of the show have selected five classic and affordable styles of men’s rings and wedding bands from JMR that will appear on an upcoming episode.
Jensen Beach, FL January 23, 2013
Online men’s jewelry store JustMensRings (JMR) will soon make its television debut on the beloved long-running soap opera Days of Our Lives. Agents from the daytime serial have purchased a number of men’s rings from JMR to be worn by one or more male cast members. Affordable yet luxurious in appearance, these rings will no doubt fit right in with the glamorous cast.
While there is no word yet on which characters will sport the bands, longtime watchers of the show might be able to hazard a guess or two based on the five rings that were selected. Amongst the choices are three gold plated bands made from tough tungsten carbide, a contemporary material known for its superior scratch resistance. One style, a plain domed band with a polished finish, has the look of a traditional wedding ring. Another offers a satin finish center framed by eye-catching polished step down edges, while a third has the romantic phrase “Love Forever” etched in a cursive font.
Finishing up the show’s selection is a pair of two tone styles, both made from rugged and dependable stainless steel. Three rounded ridges define the first ring, with features a gold tone center handsomely offset by the natural silver hue of stainless steel. The second stainless steel style is somewhat more ornate, with a carved gold tone center, milgrain lines and polished edges. Given their hypoallergenic material and versatile two tone designs, these bands could be worn by virtually any male cast member.
While decidedly upscale in appearance, all of the JMR bands purchased by Days of Our Lives are priced under $60. This should hardly come as a surprise to regular shoppers at JustMensRings, as JMR has established itself as one of the most affordable online retailers of men’s rings, wedding bands and jewelry for men. In addition to budget-friendly rings made from contemporary materials like tungsten, stainless steel, titanium, cobalt chrome and ceramic, JMR also carries a considerable number of designer men’s rings and wedding bands in precious materials like gold, platinum and palladium.
“Everyone at JMR is looking forward to seeing our rings on Days of Our Lives,” says JustMensRings president and owner Roy Devine. “Finding out what styles will be worn by which characters will be an exciting plot twist for us.”
One of the longest running television shows in the history of the world, Days of Our Lives recently celebrated the airing of its 12,000th episode. The classic tungsten and stainless steel styles selected for the show can currently be viewed and purchased online at JustMensRings.
