Decrease in the production of domestic high carbon ferrochrome

            February high carbon ferrochrome production was 345,200 tons, compared with January 403,900 tons down 58,700 tons, an increase of 51.13% (2016 February output of 22.84 million tons). January-February high-carbon ferrochrome cumulative production is 749,000 tons.
         In February the southern region affected by its high cost, the overall operating rate is still low, coupled with the short production cycle in February, resulting in a decline in production that month. Hunan Province in February (Gansu, Qinghai, Xinjiang) high carbon ferrochrome operating rate of 60%, the release of capacity in February (Gansu, Qinghai, Xinjiang) high carbon ferrochrome operating rate of 15%, production capacity release of 11%, expected production of 0.75 million tons; For the 33%, is expected to yield 3.33 million tons; Shanxi to February high carbon ferrochrome operating rate of 44%, production capacity of 28% (↓ 2%), is expected to yield 2.68 (↓ 0.23) million tons; February Sichuan High carbon ferrochrome operating rate of 22% (↓ 8%), production capacity of 11% (↓ 7%), is expected to yield about 1.64 (↓ 0.56) million tons; Guizhou high carbon ferrochrome operating rate of 64 (↓ 4%), the production capacity of about 55% (↓ 11%), is expected to yield 4.59 (↓ 0.86) million tons; February Inner Mongolia high carbon ferrochrome operating rate of 63%, production capacity of 56% The output is expected to yield 157.6 million tons; in February the domestic non-major areas of high-carbon ferrochrome operating rate of 48% (↓ 3%) (39 statistics factory, 19 in production), production capacity of about 28% (↓ 7%) , The estimated yield of 5.77 (↓ 1.55 million tons).
