Natural Graphite Market Review 2010 now Available at MarketPublishers.com

LONDON, May 12, 2010 - The global graphite industry had a difficult year in 2009,
with many producers forced to scale down their operations or even close their
mines in the 1st half of the year. With the credit crunch crimping the steel
sector, graphite producers along with the rest of the refractories industry
saw a slowdown in demand. Swiss graphite producer Timcal Ltd, for one,
temporarily stopped operations at its mine in Lac-des-Iles, PQ, Canada in 1H
2009. In addition to the global recession, the industry was adversely
impacted by unfavourable weather conditions and regulatory changes in China.
For 2010, the outlook seems to be getting better, but the recovery is
expected to proceed at a slow pace in the overall.
