7th Chinese Industrial Minerals Conference

Industrial Minerals, in association with the China Chamber of Commerce of Metals, Minerals Chemicals, Importers Exporters is proud to announce that CIMC 2007

---7th Chinese Industrial Minerals Conference is to be held in Dalian this year.

Chinese mineral supply and consuming markets are evolving fast and making a significant impact on global minerals trade. Growth markets in steel, refractories, ceramics, glass, foundry, paper, paint, and plastics have stimulated new and expanding opportunities for supplying raw materials within, and most significantly of late, to China. What are latest developments?

At the same time Chinese mineral export industry is undergoing fundamental change, with increasingly limited volumes available for export and at higher prices #8211; the priority for domestic resources is domestic demand. What does this mean for the global market?

Alongside China there are emerging hotspots of activity in potential new sources of mineral supply and consuming markets in South East Asia. Where are these hotspots and what is their outlook?

These questions and much more will be answered at CIMC 2007---the forum to acquire the latest trends and developments in industrial minerals markets in China and East Asia.

CIMC 2007 is in the beautiful city of Dalian, Liaoning province, the gateway to China#8217;s north-east industrial powerhouse and home to leading world sources of borates, magnesite, marble, talc, and wollastonite.

The CIMC 2007 Field Trip Programme will look to take advantage of the event#8217;s proximity to these world class mineral operations.
