Tungsten Price History: – History Repeating Itself
==> picture [143 x 96] intentionally omitted <==

Tungsten uses
==> picture [143 x 96] intentionally omitted <==
-
Tungsten is a specialty metal – hardest metal, highest melting point
-
Annual trade ~80,000 to 100,000 tonnes metal equivalent
-
50% used to make tungsten carbide for cutting hard substances
-
25% used for hardening steel (for tool steel, cutting steel)
-
25% used for myriad of high tech applications, mostly with no substitutes.
Tungsten pricing
==> picture [143 x 96] intentionally omitted <==
-
Tungsten prices are quoted for Ammonium Para Tungstate (APT) or Ferro Tungsten alloy in Metric Tonne Units (mtu)
-
1 mtu is 1% of tungsten metal in a tonne of something (concentrate, chemical or final product)
-
Price received for concentrate is at a discount to APT price, discount depends on quality of concentrate (and demand for tungsten)
-
To make it easier CNQ forecasts production in mtu’s and uses a sale price reflecting anticipated current discount.
Forecast Gross Revenues
==> picture [142 x 96] intentionally omitted <==
| Stage | Estimated gross revenue/year at current prices |
|---|---|
| 1. Tailings | $10,000,000 |
| 2. Low grade stockpiles | $50,000,000 |
| 3. Hard rock mining | $100,000,000 |
