Molydenum demand

Historically, molybdenum demand has shown a strong growth rate, primarily fuelled by the rapid increases in Chinese industrial growth.

Molybdenum demand continues to be driven largely by the steel sector which represents close to three quarters of global offtake.

As a result, the overall state of the steel market is crucial in determining the state of molybdenum demand now and in the future.

Molybdenum Outlook


The Molybdenum Outlook will help you and your company find answers to the pressing questions facing the molybdenum industry. These questions include:

  • Steel accounts for three quarters of molybdenum off take.  How quickly could alloy steels recover?
  • China has made an abrupt switch from major exporter to major importer.  What lies behind this dramatic transformation?
  • What has been the response of producers to recession?  Why has by-product output fallen heavily?
  • When, where and how could molybdenum supply recover?
  • What does it cost to produce molybdenum?
  • Is there still an opportunity for new producers?
  • Has the industry banished the threat of a roaster bottleneck for good?

Extensive coverage

The outlook reviews the dynamics of the molybdenum market, studies the likely path of supply and demand and maps out the pricing landscape that will shape the sector over the next few years.

Specifically it includes:

  • Insight into the shifting structure of molybdenum supply.
  • Production data for every Western World mine.
  • Profiles of all Western World mines and roasters.
  • Production costs at primary producers.
  • Roaster capacities.
  • Analysis of China’s role in the international market.
  • Reviews of all molybdenum’s end-use markets.
