Five trends in five years for flake graphite

摘要

We expect China to remain the primary supplier of flake graphite. The country produced 61 % of the world's flake graphite in 2012, over twice as much as its closest competitor, Brazil, which accounted for 23% of global output. As China's 12th Five Year Plan gains momentum however, it is our expectation that supply restrictions on its flake graphite industry will increase.
