MAGAN
Early Oman Commodity transporting vessel and civilisation. Sohar was
once the richest city in the region during the Bronze Age
Magan vessel carrying copper buns for trade with Mesopotamia
Source of tin to make bronze remains a mystery (Cornwall?)
Traders funded by Temples who charged 20% - 33% rates
5,000 years ago.
Sohar once the richest settlement in the Gulf based on
copper trade. Developed specialist smelter skills to
double smelt ‘black copper’ ores and import tin to
make bronze. Traded with Indus, Europe &
Mesopotamia. Ended when Turkey had more firewood
and sourced copper from Cyprus.

Minerals in the National Economy
The Government policy document “Vision 2020” states that
industrial diversification can be an instrument to achieve the
development targets set by the Government. Also, in the These
targets include increasing the contribution of the non-oil sectors.
Minerals sector on of the government focuses. As a result
numbers of minerals plants corporations come up like :-
Oman is the second largest country after Saudi Arabia in the GCC
region with an excellent geology of minerals
Oman’s mining industry is an important sector in the country’s
diversification program.
Oman is the first GCC producer and exporter of ferrochrome.
Oman is home to large deposits of gypsum, limestone, marble and
other carbonate-based minerals.
The discovery of deposits of copper, chromite has attracted foreign
investments over the last few years

Quick look back at our Benchmarking
analysis – March 2015

Industry Cost Curve
Without by product credits
85% of industry cost curve
point requires a sustainable
metal price of U$9,300/t based
on current global energy prices
and current U$ strength
(weakness in producer
currencies). Both could change
to lift this 85% point higher in
future.
Therefore, the future sources
will require precious metal co-
values to prosper, or prices will
have to sustainably above the
85 percentile.
29
Antimony price cycles in the past
The Industry destocking fears (Fanya and global markets) is reminiscent of the destocking after WW1 where Sb metal in ammunition stocks brought prices down to 5c/lb, it settled to 8c/lb after the stock fears (kind of where we are heading to now) and was volatile thereafter rising to 19c/lb following year. The actual units don’t matter, but the trough to peak of 3.8x is worth remembering. This last peak to trough cycle has also been a 3.8x.
Compared with Copper since 1900, the average ratio of 1.5x is presently at 1.0x despite Sb being 300x more scarce than copper.
Compared with Gold since 1897 required 8.7 ounces of gold to buy a tonne of antimony, today its nearer 4.7 ounces – all time lows.
Clearly, industry cost push cannot be ignored for long.
However, the Demand price resistance is just as important a Governor on the future long-term price for Antimony…..unless it is finds or improves the value added uses in the future.
The relative cheapness of Sb compared to its much higher scarcity has left it in a commoditised demand segment (5x more scarce than tungsten for example and by far a greater diversity and ubiquitous uses).

Future Sources – regional example

Future Consumers – regional example
Middle plastics production growth CAGR +8%pa 2020,
chemicals basin c 11% world market share.
Indian polyester production to double by 2030
Indian plastics industry CAGR +13% pa past 5 years
3rd largest consumer of polymers behind China & USA
+16% pa
Indian plastics consumes only 10kg per capita 2015,
China 38 kg, Europe +100 kg.
Yet, Indian plastics production still only represents 3% of
world plastics capacity, major new capacity increases
ahead.
