More Asian mills refuse to buy untaxed China FeSi

摘要

More Asian steelmakers are avoiding ferrosilicon shipped from countries that do not produce the metal, as it could possibly be Chinese material that has been transported out of China without paying export tax, mill and trade sources said Friday. Vietnam for example does not produce ferrosilicon, and the material shipped from Vietnam is believed to be of Chinese-origin and transported through the borders on trucks or on boats without paying the 25% export tax, industry sources said.
