Digging deep: Falling global manganese prices and subdued demand have cut into revenue and profit
Manganese and other mineral miners have faced volatile operating conditions over the past five years. Industry revenue is expected to fall at an annualised 2.7% over the five years through 2022-23, to total $3.8 billion. Volatile prices and subdued demand conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic have weighed on demand in both domestic and export markets. Falling global manganese prices have pushed revenue lower. Revenue is anticipated to fall by a further 8.0% in 2022-23 due to weaker manganese prices.
Industry companies mine manganese, beryllium, bismuth, molybdenite, platinum group metals, tantalum, tin ore, tungsten and other metallic ores, and undertake basic processing operations. Manganese is the main ore mined by the industry. After processing, manganese is typically used as an alloy and for various other industrial applications.
