    EBRD invests EUR 25 Million in Kosovo’s Largest Exporter

    The EBRD is investing EUR 25 million in the largest ferronickel producing company in Kosovo, NewCo Ferronikeli to support energy efficiency and operational efficiency investments. The financing will increase NFN’s competitiveness through efficiency measures such as the installation of an ore dryer, which will reduce both the length of time in the ore smelting process and the emission of particulates.

    Implementing higher environmental standards and energy efficient investments will see the company’s greenhouse gas emissions decrease by an expected 38,615 tonnes of CO2 per year. The new measures set NFN out as a leader in the sector by demonstrating how modernisation measures can contribute to a sustainable future for mining companies.

    Established in 1989 and privatised in 2006, NFN is now Kosovo’s largest exporter. The company produces and exports about 7,000 tonnes of high quality nickel annually. It is one of the largest private employers in the country. NFN is majority-owned by Balfin, the largest private conglomerate group in Albania.

    Mr Samir Mane, founder and owner of Balfin said that “Balfin is proud to continue our long history of working with EBRD. We have now collaborated with EBRD in all of our key countries. The investments that we are doing in Ferronikeli will ensure that it remains a competitive nickel producer in the global economy and continues to provide substantial employment in Kosovo.”

    Mr Eric Rasmussen, EBRD Director, Natural Resources, said that “The EBRD is very pleased to support Balfin’s strategic investment to revive Ferronikeli, which is important for both Kosovo and the local community. The EBRD finance will help reduce energy costs and improve the quality of production, which should enable Ferronikeli to become a competitive exporter.”

    The EBRD has invested over EUR 395 million in Kosovo through 65 projects since it began operations in the country in 2012. Supporting competitive development of the private sector and enhancing energy security and sustainability are key priorities for the EBRD in Kosovo.

    Philippines Top High-Grade Nickel Ore Miner Set To Shut Down – Report

    Reuters reported that Philippines’ top exporter of high-grade nickel ore is expected to shut its mining operations soon as ore deposits at a project in the nation’s southernmost province of Tawi-Tawi are nearly depleted.

    SR Languyan Mining Corp will shut “most likely” later this year, said Jaynul Ali Sambarani, head of mines and geoscience services at the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources for the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao. The closure will likely reduce the Philippines’ monthly exports of nickel ore to top metals consumer China by 300,000 to 400,000 tonnes, based on estimates by the Mines and Geosciences Bureau.

    MGB Director Wilfredo Moncano told Reuters that “It’s a major supplier of high-grade ores.”

    SR Languyan is not among the large-scale nickel miners under MGB’s jurisdiction, and Moncano could not confirm or deny the shutdown.

    The mid-sized miner is one of more than two dozen nickel ore producers in the Philippines, China’s second-biggest supplier of nickel ores, which are mostly used in producing stainless steel and for battery materials.

    US ITC to Impose AD & CVD on Steel Rack Imports from China

    The United States International Trade Commission has determined that US industry is materially injured by reason of imports of steel racks from China that the US Department of Commerce has determined are subsidized and sold in the United States at less than fair value. As a result of the USITC’s affirmative determinations, Commerce will issue antidumping and countervailing duty orders on imports of this product from China.

    Product Description: A steel rack, sometimes referred to as a “storage rack,” is a structure consisting of the following hot-rolled or cold-formed steel structural components: (1) vertical columns connected by braces, (2) load-bearing horizontal beams, and (3) locking devices to secure the beams to the columns. Certain types of steel racks may also include movable components, such as rails, wheels, rollers, tracks, channels, carts, or conveyors. Steel racks offer strength and stability for storing heavy loads in readily accessible rack configurations. Hence, they are utilized for short- or long-term holding of products or materials in warehouses, order-fulfillment and distribution centers, big-box retail stores, and manufacturing facilities.

    Amtek Auto Lenders Angry with Mr Sanjeev Gupta of Liberty Group

    Mint reported that when an insolvency appeals court ordered the liquidation of bankrupt Amtek Auto Ltd last week, lenders lost hope of recovering much of the dues worth INR 12,603 crore owed by the once thriving auto parts maker. Many of Amtek’s lenders are now directing their anger at Mr Sanjeev Gupta, chairman of London based metals company Liberty House, which, after placing a winning bid to acquire Amtek Auto, backed out abruptly at the last moment, scuppering the bankruptcy process. A senior banking executive, who was on the committee of creditors of two of these assets, said that “It’s been a colossal loss for lenders. We want Liberty House to be blacklisted. In the case of Adhunik Metaliks, we will appropriate the INR 55 crore that has been paid to us by Liberty House. But we also want Liberty House to be penalized for the cost of delay in resolution and for how much the asset has deteriorated since their resolution plans were approved."

    More than a year after being declared the successful bidder, Liberty House has failed to pay the INR 4,400 crore it offered to acquire Amtek. It’s not the first time that Liberty House has stumbled after placing a winning bid. This has been a pattern, lenders say. It has reneged on two previous occasions, one after emerging as the top bidder for ABG Shipyard and the other in the case of Adhunik Metaliks Ltd in a similar way.

    In May, the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India, the bankruptcy regulator, charged Liberty House and its senior executives with wilfully breaching the terms of the Amtek Auto resolution plan.

    GMS Market Commentary on Shipbreaking in Bangladesh in Week 33 - OUT FOR EID!

    Ongoing Eid holidays have resulted in minimal activity in Bangladesh this week, not only in terms of SNP activity & new purchases, but also local arrivals and deliveries as the only vessel at Chattogram anchorage was beached this week, leaving Bangladesh’s port position barren for the first time in a very long time. The ongoing Monsoon season and constant rains have continued to hamper much of the recycling activities at local yards, indicating that a healthy portion of the previously delivered large LDT inventory is still sitting on local plots and product has yet to shift to domestic steel mills.

    Coupled with the recent increase in VAT in Bangladesh, this has been a seemingly uncontrollable slowdown in the shifting of inventory from yards and has subsequently suffocated demand from Bangladeshi Buyers over these summer months.

    The conclusion of Eid holidays and incoming end of the rains may therefore be too soon to start seeing this market moving up again, even though an uptick in this market seems inevitable, given the overall stability of key domestic fundamentals.

    Values in Action Honors Mr Todd Leebow of Majestic Steel

    Majestic Steel USA president and CEO Mr Todd Leebow was honored to be among the recipients of the Values-in-Action Foundation's Sam Miller Goodness Award at the foundation's 18th Annual Celebration of Goodness Luncheon, held July 10, 2019. Mr Ronald Kahn, co-founder of Ronald McDonald House of Cleveland, presented the award, citing the hundreds of hours that Majestic Steel associates and Leebow family members, including Jonathan Leebow and Matthew Leebow, contributed to RMH Cleveland. He said that "Majestic Steel USA and the Leebow family represent enterprise and entrepreneurship in our community. How they got there is through values, goodness, and a catchall way of empowering employees to do good.”

    Majestic Steel USA adopted RMH Cleveland as it's charity in 2017 and 2018. During that period, the company funded a significant renovation of the kitchen patio, installing a large grill, handicap-accessible tables, patio brick, and a signature tree sculpture. Majestic Steel also funded sorely needed new furniture for the house's sunroom. The company continues to serve as a presenting sponsor for a major annual fundraising event for RMH Cleveland, and Majestic Steel associates have invested "countless hours to cook for families, conduct activities for children, and [perform] chores and gardening work around the house," said Kahn.

    Accepting the award on behalf of the Leebow family and Majestic Steel associates, Mr Todd Leebow singled out his brother Jonathan Leebow for his contributions to the company's philanthropic activities: "Jonathan, my brother, is the catalyst of all this. He has made giving and community a part of our DNA, and every associate at Majestic feels that."

    He added that "When we do things in the community, it's not just about a donation it's about your time, it's about your energy, it's about being a part of it.”

    He then credited the entire Majestic Steel team for "rallying" to support the greater Cleveland community and "recognizing that community is such an important part of our business."

    GMS Market Commentary on Shipbreaking in India in Week 33 - CONFIDENCE SHAKEN!

    The shocking 15% crash in local steel plate prices in India has had repercussive effects throughout the Indian subcontinent ship recycling industry, with both Pakistan and Bangladesh lowering their numbers in response to subsequently precarious overall fundamentals. Although plate prices have weakened by about USD 70/Ton since early July, amidst a rocky performance this week, plate prices did end on a marginally optimistic note, up overall by about USD 5/Ton. The sharp depreciation of the Indian Rupee too has added to local woes as the currency continues trading in excess of Rs. 71 against the U.S. Dollar as the week ended, a first for the Indian Rupee this year.

    Consequently, local Recyclers have been (and continue) offering some of the lowest levels for units in the subcontinent markets and Cash Buyers with unsold expensive inventories are either investigating alternative markets or various layup options whilst prices and sentiments remain so dire in Alang, and the subcontinent markets overall.

    JSW Steel USA Puts Mingo Junction EAF Plans on Hold

    SP Global reported that JSW Steel USA has put on hold its plans to construct a new electric arc furnace at its plate mill in Baytown in Texas in USA. JSW USA CEO John Hritz said “While JSW USA is fully underway in modernizing the plate mill at Baytown, Texas, given the current market conditions and the prevailing policy environment, the company has for now decided to put on hold the backward integration project of installing an electric arc furnace and slab caster at Baytown. JSW USA, however, remains committed to being a fully melt and manufactured enterprise in the US and is working diligently on ramping up Mingo Junction's 1.5 million tonne EAF and Caster in Ohio."

    JSW USA had said in March 2018 that it planned to invest USD 500 million at its Baytown, Texas, mill in a multi-phase project that would include the installation of an EAF. JSW's Baytown mill is dependent on imported slabs to produce its plate and pipe products.

    ArcelorMittal Delayed Chemical Spill Reporting - IDEM

    CBS reported that ArcelorMittal has admitted that it knew about a chemical spill that contaminated the Little Calumet River in Northwest Indiana far back as August 11, but did not notify Indiana state officials until four days later. The Indiana Department of Environmental Management said it found a distressed fish in the river Monday, and then took complaints of a dead fish on Tuesday. By Wednesday, the state said it discovered a significant fish die-off in the area, but they did not know the cause.

    Indiana Department of Environmental Management said “ArcelorMittal told IDEM about the blast furnace failure that caused the spill on August 15. IDEM immediately notified the news media, stakeholders, and Portage, Indiana Mayor John Cannon, and also dispatched emergency responders.”

    CBS 2 learned earlier this week that the spill of cyanide and ammonia killed 3,000 fish. The dead fish included panfish, shad, channel catfish, bass and walleye

    The latest IDEM sampling showed no cyanide in the water, and decreasing values for ammonia in-stream. IDEM emergency crews remained at the spill site Tuesday, and the department will determine what, if any, violations occurred after emergency response activities are done.

    GMS Market Commentary on Shipbreaking in Turkey in Week 33 - THE STRUGGLE IS REAL!

    Other than the addition of Eid Holidays resulting in the market staying closed for a greater part of the week there is virtually nothing new to report from Turkey this week. Local steel plate prices and the Turkish Lira remain virtually unchanged, local demand is prevalent, the supply of tonnage is invisible, and local yards remain harrowingly empty / struggling to stay open, all while the Indian subcontinent markets continue to slide.

    Just how long this market will continue at this rate is anyone’s surprise, aside from the fact that local steel plate prices have continued to remain steady amidst a virtually non- existent supply of ship’s steel to the domestic steel mills.

    GMS Market Commentary on Shipbreaking in Pakistan in Week 33 - OFF THE BOIL!

    Pakistani Buyers seemingly do not have the desire or confidence to place fresh and firm offers (that are in line with local fundamentals) on the table and no sooner do we see a number from Gadani, it is almost immediately withdrawn as soon as further negative news from India is forthcoming. The unending price offerings that are solely focused on India (rather than their own fundamentals) are something that will unfortunately keep this market from ever being independently competitive on a global perspective.

    Moreover, testament to the fact that the Pakistani market has not been seriously active for over a year now, local confidence has further dampened and local Recyclers are nervous at making any aggressive moves, especially given the performance of the domestic economy following Imran Khan’s election victory last year.

    Although presently stable, the Pakistani Rupee too has reached historical lows and imports of cheap Iranian billets are killing the resale of ship’s steel, in what have become the key prevalent issues facing the ship recycling sector in Gadani today.

    MMK Increases Deliveries to Automotive Industry by 23% in H1 of 2019

    Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works delivered more than 314,000 tonnes of steel products to the automotive industry in the first half of 2019, exceeding the previous year's figure for the same period by 23%. The share of shipments to the automotive industry in the first six months of this year amounted to 7.5% of MMK's supplies to the domestic market. The first half of this year saw significant increases in the supply of Magnitogorsk metal to such automakers as AVTOVAZ, UAZ and Volkswagen. MMK is a leading supplier of steel products from ferrous metals to automobile plants and related enterprises that produce automotive components. The company supplies cold-rolled and hot-dip galvanised steel to all major Russian companies in the industry, as well as to foreign automakers localising their capacities in Russia. At the same time, MMK’s share within the structure of metal consumption in many enterprises of the automotive industry reaches 50-80%.

    An important step in the expansion of MMK's presence in the steel market for the automotive industry was the commissioning in 2011-2012 of the modern cold rolling complex in the sheet rolling shop No. 11 – Mill 2000. The launch of the complex allowed MMK to compete closely with foreign manufacturers. The technological features of the complex have made it possible to meet the most stringent requirements for the surface quality of cold-rolled and hot-galvanized steel, to provide high tolerances in thickness, and to produce high-strength IF-HS, HSLA, BH and DP steel that is in demand among automakers and automotive component manufacturers. In 2018, the supply of MMK steel products to the automotive industry amounted to almost 550,000 tonnes, which became a record figure for the company. This year, MMK plans to surpass the mark of 600,000 tonnes of metal products shipped to the automotive industry.

    Norilsk and South African Coal Town Kriel Top SO2 Emissions Hot Spots - NASA data

    Reuters reported that Russia’s Norilsk smelter complex and a town in South Africa’s eastern coal mining province have the highest sulfur dioxide emissions in the world, according to satellite data from US space agency NASA. The NASA-compiled data published on Monday was commissioned by environmental group Greenpeace India and used the space authority’s satellites to track anthropogenic sulfur dioxide emission hot spots around the world.

    Scientists said that excessive exposure to SO2 particles causes long-term respiratory difficulties and stunted growth in infants among other problems.

    Norilsk, 300km (186 miles) inside the Arctic Circle, has the largest individual SO2 emissions, followed by the South African town of Kriel, about 150km east of Johannesburg, Monday’s report found.

    The industrial city of Norilsk is home to Norilsk Nickel, the world’s leading nickel and palladium producer.

    The company is implementing a massive program to improve the ecology of the city and its surroundings.

    The first stage of the program is complete. After the closure of an old nickel plant and reconstruction of nearby plants, emissions in the city’s residential area fell by 30%, Nornickel told Reuters on Monday.

    The second phase will involve a USD 2.5 billion sulfur project to help to reduce sulfur dioxide emissions in and around Norilsk by 75% from 2015 levels by 2023.
