Under the conditions of modern warfare, infrared camera has been on individual combat systems, tanks, satellites, missiles, aircraft and other military weapons and a wide range of applications, enabling reconnaissance, surveillance, positioning, precision-guided, precision strike capabilities. In 2011, the infrared optical germanium demand in the military occupied compare up to 88%. America is back in 1984 as a defense germanium will reserve resources, currently the US Defense Logistics Agency stocks strategic material remains at more than 16 tons. In the Gulf War, the United States, for example, the US per capita with 1.7 units / person, Infrared configure the number of more than 200,000 units, according to industry experts estimate that each device needs to count 700 grams germanium, germanium need 140 tons.

Lack of confidence in the tungsten market, sales of both weak

Tungsten market: Tungsten terminal needs no breakthrough, downstream tungsten spot transactions difficult, intense price competition, the range offer low or dropping tentative.

In addition, due to the current market APT inventory is relatively large, slow pace in sales, manufacturers slowed purchases of raw materials, tungsten concentrate turnover is also weak. Currently, the market turnover of 65% tungsten concentrate very little turnover of 50-60% tungsten concentrate prices being stable. Overall, the lack of confidence in the market, two weak sales.

Scheelite guide prices steady, APT and powder steady downward

Ganzhou Tungsten Industry Association April tungsten market forecast price: wolframite 86,000 yuan / ton mark, APT13.3 yuan / ton, the particles 215 yuan / kg (Ganzhou APT processing business is not low fees at 12,000 yuan / ton).

The March for forecasting price in: wolframite 86,000 yuan / ton mark, APT13.5 yuan / ton, the particles 219 yuan / kg. Concentrate steady, APT and powder down.

Industry analysts believe that the tungsten concentrate prices steady guidance that reason, but also in the unexpected. Concentrate in the first quarter of the successive rise, making downstream tungsten iron manufacturers reduce procurement; coincides with the Chinese New Year holidays and steel maintenance, resulting in sluggish market demand; therefore most of the manufacturers to stop production and consumption of inventory based. So concentrate price gains difficult to continue, April steady. But for tungsten iron manufacturers, the start is still to fully recover, so procurement is still in the doldrums; although the downstream steel prices have been warming trend, but the price of raw materials prices down severely. So ferro-tungsten prices continue to decline, the overall order-based production operations, reduce inventory risk.
