China's tungsten industry sets seven development targets

China's tungsten industry will seek future development according to
seven aspects, sources from the China Tungsten Industry Association
disclosed:

- Geological prospecting.

- Mining. To strictly control the total amount mined, standardize
mining and increase the comprehensive utilization rate.

- Smelting. Multi-type crystal and superfine ammonium paramolybdate
and ultra-thin, nano and ultra-coarse tungsten powder and tungsten
carbide powder will be developed.

- Hard alloy. High-precision and high function lapping and coated
alloy and supporting tools will be developed.

- Tungsten alloy and materials. High function special tungsten wire
and large-size plate, nano tungsten alloy materials, tungsten-base
compound materials, tungsten-base high rate alloy and compound
materials of special structures will be developed.

- Tungsten steel. Professional factories adopting advanced
technologies will be built to produce quality high-speed steel.

- Tungsten chemicals. Tungsten chemical products with high technical
content and high added value will be developed.
