Amaxabiso eMolybdenum amiselwe ukuba anyuke emva kwemfuno esempilweni evela kushishino lweoyile negesi kunye nokwehla kokukhula konikezelo.

Amaxabiso esinyithi aphantse afikelele kwi-US$13 ngeponti, elona liphezulu ukusukela ngo-2014 kwaye lingaphezulu kokuphindwe kabini xa kuthelekiswa namanqanaba abonwe ngoDisemba ka-2015.

Ngokutsho kwe-International Molybdenum Association, i-80 yepesenti ye-molybdenum eyenziwa ngonyaka ngamnye isetyenziselwa ukwenza isinyithi esingenasici, isinyithi kunye ne-superalloys.

"I-Molybdenum isetyenziselwa ukuhlola, ukugrumba, imveliso kunye nokucokisa," uGeorge Heppel we-CRU Group uxelele iReuters, esongeza ukuba amaxabiso aphezulu akhuthaze imveliso yokuqala evela kumlimi ophezulu waseChina.

“Imeko kule minyaka mihlanu izayo yeyokukhula okuphantsi kakhulu kobonelelo oluvela kwimithombo yemveliso. Ekuqaleni koo-2020, kuya kufuneka ukuba sibone imigodi yokuqala ivulwa kwakhona ukuze kugcinwe imarike ilungelelene,” utshilo.

Ngokutsho kweQela le-CRU, imfuno ye-molybdenum iqikelelwe kwi-577 yezigidi zeepounds kulo nyaka, apho i-16 ekhulwini iya kuvela kwioli kunye negesi.

“Sibona ukuthathwa kweempahla ezisetyenziswa kwintengiso yerhasi yaseMntla Melika,” utshilo uDavid Merriman, umhlalutyi ophezulu kwi-metal consultancy Roskill. "Kukho unxibelelwano oluqinileyo phakathi kwemfuno ye-moly kunye nezibalo ezisebenzayo zokuqhuba."

Ukongeza, imfuno evela kwi-aerospace kunye nemizi-mveliso yeemoto nayo iyakhula.

Ukujonga phezu kokubonelela, malunga nesiqingatha se-molybdenum sikhutshwe njengemveliso yemigodi yobhedu, kwaye amaxabiso abone inkxaso evela kukuphazamiseka kwemigodi yobhedu ngo-2017. kulo nyaka.

Imveliso kwi-Codelco yaseChile yehla ukusuka kwi-30,000 yeetoni ze-moly kwi-2016 ukuya kwii-28,700 zeetoni kwi-2017, ngenxa yamabanga aphantsi kwi-Chuquicamata mine yayo.

Okwangoku, umgodi waseSierra Gorda eChile, apho umgodi wobhedu wasePoland KGHM (FWB: KGHA) unesigxina se-55 ekhulwini, wavelisa phantse i-36 yezigidi zeeponti ngo-2017. Oko kwathiwa, inkampani ilindele ukuba imveliso iyancipha i-15 ukuya kwi-20 yeepesenti nayo. ukuthoba amabanga entsimbi.
