The "Key Data" released in 2007 announced the 2005 statistics, and also provided the 1973 statistics for comparison. From the published data, we can clearly find the development path and trend of the world energy and power industry. Also, China's strong development momentum, high- speed growth of energy consumption and the enormous challenges in the sustainable energy supply are especially noticeable.

Bauxite, magnesia, fused a-lumina , and refractory clays in particular, have maintained China s strong position as the world ' s leading supplier of these minerals. However , important changes have taken place in the structure of Chinese and global supply of these minerals. More-over, the world refractory market and the minerals trading sector have also undergone a radical transformation that has influenced mineral supply, and shifted end product manufacture to China. This paper highlights these changes and sees hour they have, impacted on China as a world source of refractory minerals.展开更多
