managanese price rising, page-25

Hmmmmm.
So you can't just put impure ore in a furnace.
So some how you have to refine it. To say 99.% pure to use it for steel and other uses.
That ore at say 48% plus would go to China manganese metal producers.
That the current price is around the "break even" point for these produces.
That Manganese prices will be under pressure.

Thanks Santoos.
That clears it up for me.
