| Foreword |
|
Tin metal has many
diverse applications, including solders, as a coating for steel in
food and beverage applications, pewter, alloys etc, as well as being
a precursor for several tin chemical uses. Many participants in the ‘tin industries’
want an
overview of current events and, more importantly, need to know from
where supplies of tin are available. This ‘Tin Mining &
Metal Sourcebook’ is therefore intended as a ready reference
guide to the tin industry, an executive summary if you will, giving
a brief overview of its recent history and a snapshot of the current
position and statistics, together with lists of the main players,
their contact details and a brief summary of their operations.
