Waste tungsten mainstream domestic market steady, overseas stabilized tungsten City

Currently Scheelite watching the market atmosphere, September guided forthcoming, most recently merchants offer stability maintenance. Coupled with early market funds less stressful, tungsten scrap merchant has no intention of price adjustment, the downstream demand still in the doldrums, no significant improvement in volume. Short-term market is expected to more than scrap tungsten will continue steady sidelines.

Waste tungsten mainstream market continues steady. Currently scrap tungsten drill mainstream price excluding tax concentrated in the 189-190 yuan / kg, domestic waste tungsten blade 168.5-170 yuan / kg, imported waste and scrap tungsten blade drawing die is still concentrated in the 178-180 yuan / kg. Grinding material purchase price 30-40 degrees W content focused on the 1.45-1.5 yuan / kWh, 50-70 degrees concentrated in the 1.55-1.65 yuan / kWh, more than 70 degrees concentrated in the 1.65-1.71 yuan / kWh.

Overseas tungsten City stabilized stabilized. On the 29th evening MB Rotterdam ferrotungsten offer $ 39.7-40.7 / kg tungsten, ammonium paratungstate Europe offer 350-360 dollars / metric ton, the Hong Kong offer remains at $ 358-370 / t degrees, are steady. European summer break ended, overseas downstream demand to be released, the market sentiment gradually improved, trading atmosphere gradually recovers, the city is expected to maintain steady short-term overseas tungsten potential.

Tungsten Market Has Weakened Further With the Pressure of Inquiry

Tungsten market this week has continued to slump, and money of  tungsten businessmen is tight, the supply and demand is in a state of wait-and-see with the lackness of market operation, then the dealing volume is less. Tungsten market wait-and-see sentiment is strong, because there is still no positive signs, and the market is lack of strong confidence to support, and smelting factory such as downstream APT has continued to put pressure on the inquiry of tungsten concentrate and raw materials, currently 60 degrees of tungsten concentrate has now 100000 yuan/ton lower inquiry.

It is expected that before the price be published in September, tungsten, or stabilizing run, clinch a deal difficult breakthrough;Price is also difficult to rally may tungsten concentrate in September, main factors are: one is the normal production in mines, raw material supply growth; Second, the downstream demand remains weak, long-term difficult to balance the supply and demand, supply exceeds demand; Three is tungsten business money is tight, the businessman and careful operation, or thrown at cheap prices, all of this is bad for ore price upward.

The Market of Tungsten Carbide Scrap in North American Has Down

Due to late August, some overseas enterprises have been in summer break, and havenot returned to the market, compared with the spring summer end users to buy in quantity.Tungsten carbide scrap prices are relatively low, the mainstream is around $15 / LBS. It is said that a customer for the price of $15.25 / lb payment to successful trading a small amount of goods, and the more volume, price will be relative declined slightly.

In spite of  tungsten carbide scrap market downturn, but the market supply of goods supply tight, businesses find echo request of tungsten carbide scrap difficulty coefficient is larger, and tungsten carbide scrap as effective alternative to the tungsten carbide 99.7% min, as the end of the summer break, the arrival of the "golden Sep silver Oct" is expected to be back later.

What is X-ray Protection?

The production of x-rays requires a rapidly moving stream of electrons that are suddenly decelerated or stopped. The source of electrons is the cathode, or negative electrode. Electrons are stopped or decelerated by the anode, or positive electrode. Electrons move between the cathode and the anode because there is a potential difference in charge between the electrodes. The components of the X-ray tube include a glass envelope containing a high vacuum. A cathode or negative electrode which contains a tungsten filament, which when heated emits electrons in a process called 'thermionic emission.
Tungsten alloy is required as it has a high atomic number to improve the efficiency of bremsstrahlung x-ray production, and a high melting point.

Two Ways for Marking X-rays

X-rays come out because of atomic processes induced by the energetic electrons shot at the target. They are just like any other kind of electromagnetic radiation. They can be produced in parcels of energy called photons, just like light. There are two different atomic processes that can produce x-ray photons. One is called Bremsstrahlung, which is a fancy German name meaning "braking radiation." The other is called K-shell emission. They can both occur in heavy atoms like tungsten.

Tungsten ore market confidence further weakened, suffered another inquiry to suppress

This week tungsten market continues to slump, cash-strapped businesses in tungsten, supply and demand have to wait and see, less market operations, thinly traded. Tungsten ore market sentiment strong, due to favorable factors has yet to see signs of market confidence weakened further downstream APT continued pressure of raw materials such as tungsten concentrate smelter home inquiry, currently 60 degrees Scheelite has now 100,000 yuan / ton low quote.

Guided announcement is expected before September, tungsten City or stabilization operation, turnover is difficult to break; September tungsten concentrate prices have soared hardly possible, the main factors are: First, the normal exploitation of mines, supply of raw materials continues to grow; Second downstream demand continues to slump, long-term supply and demand balance is difficult, oversupply; three tungsten businesses generally funds are tight, businesses or operations cautious, or cheap Paohuo, which is not conducive ore prices upward.

Mine Tales: Tungsten, Once Mined Here, Now an Import

Tungsten’s hardness at elevated temperatures, tensile strength, corrosion resistance and good electrical and thermal conductivity make it a metal of choice used in industry. Tungsten has the highest melting point of all metals, at 6,170 degrees Fahrenheit (3,410 Celsius).
 
Tungsten minerals include wolframite, scheelite, powellite, cuprotungstite and tungstite. Wolframite and scheelite — the two main commercial ores — are often found in quartz veins and contact metamorphic scheelite deposits.
 
First discovered and isolated from its ore minerals in the 1780s, it was used chiefly in the manufacture of steel in the 19th century. By the 20th century, armor-piercing shells, electronics, high-speed tool steels and nuclear and aerospace applications increased demand for tungsten carbide.
 
Some states known for their tungsten deposits are California, Colorado, Montana, Utah and Arizona. Wolframite (Fe, Mn) WO4 was first identified in Arizona by territorial geologist W.P. Blake in 1896.
 
Arizona’s early tungsten mines included the Little Dragoon Mountains, started in 1900, and the Las Guijas district in Pima County, in 1901. Before World War I, the Blue Bird Mine in the Little Dragoon Mountains produced a record 2,200-pound nearly pure specimen of the wolframite tungsten mineral huebnerite.
 
Arizona’s most productive tungsten locality, the Boriana Mine in the Hualapai Mountains of Mohave County, 20 miles southeast of Kingman, yielded 149,000 units of tungsten trioxide (WO3) between 1915 and its closure in 1956.
 
Operated by the Yucca Tungsten Mining Co., which erected a 50-ton mill at the site, it was the largest producer of tungsten in Arizona during World War I. The Boriana Mining Co. acquired the mine in 1929. The Boriana Mine became the second-largest producer of tungsten in the United States in 1936-37, with a monthly output of 3,000 tons a month.
 
By the start of World War II, the mine consisted of 16,000 feet of workings with seven levels of drifts and received electric power from a transmission line from Boulder (later Hoover) Dam.
 
The Huachuca Mountains in Cochise County, notably the Hartford Mining District, was mined for tungsten found in skarns (metamorphic rock), veins or pegmatites (igneous rock).
 
Initially worked for gold and silver since the 1870s, 170 or more tons of tungsten concentrates varying between 60 percent to 78 percent WO3 had been produced by 1970 from mines including the Tungsten Reef Mine and James Group.
 
A small camp known as Reef was established in 1901 and lasted until 1926 with a post office, boarding house and population of 100.
 
In the early 1900s, W.F. Cody — better known as “Buffalo Bill” — worked 45 claims for gold and tungsten spread across 2,000 acres around Oracle known as the Campo Bonito District.
 
Scheelite, which turns bright blue under ultraviolet black light, was mined by the Cody-Dyer Arizona Mining & Milling Co. and shipped as an additive to a Pittsburgh steel company.
 
Thomas Edison used the high-grade tungsten ore mined by Cody’s operation, including the Maudina Tungsten and Pure Gold Tungsten Mines, in the manufacturing of tungsten filament light bulbs.
 
By 1965, total tungsten production in Arizona amounted to 280,000 short ton units WO3. Since the early 2000s, tungsten mines in China have supplied 85 percent of the world market, with Russia and Canada the next-greatest producers at a distant 4 percent and 3 percent, respectively.
 
The United States — the world’s largest tungsten consumer — stopped mining tungsten in 2000 with the closure of the Pine Creek Mine near Bishop, California, and now relies on imports or recycled scrap.
 
With a volatile geopolitical market coupled with new technologies in the 21st century, perhaps heightened domestic demand will renew exploration and exploitation of Arizona’s widely distributed tungsten deposits.
