Abstract
The report is devoted to investigation of current standing of market of
schungite in CIS countries and forecast of its development. The report
includes 6 Sections, 69 pages, including 27 Tables, 12 Figures and 3
Appendices. The report is a desk study. As information sources, data of
Federal Service of State Statistics (Rosstat), Federal Customs Service of
Russia (FCS), Inter-State Statistic Committee of CIS Countries, official
domestic railage statistics of Ministry of Railways of Russia, data of
companies, the sector and regional press, annual and quarterly repots of
companies, internet-sites of company-producers and consumers of schungite were
used.
The first Section of the report presents gives an estimate of
mineral-resources base of schungite in Russia/CIS, presents brief data on
deposits of schungite, their characteristics and reserves of the resources.
The second Section of the report presents technological classification of
schungites, enterprises of the CIS, producing schungite products, and
statistical data on the production in 2002-2006.
The third Section of the report is devoted to description of CIS enterprises,
producing schungite products, presents nomenclature of the commodity products,
prices, fields of application and the main consumers.
The fourth Section presents information on export-import supplies of schungite
products in Russia in 2002-06, volumes of the supplies, average annual
contract prices on various kinds of schungite.
The fifth Section of the report describes consumption of schungite in Russia.
The Section presents supply-demand balance of schungite (2002-2006), sectoral
structure of its consumption, presents the main Russian consumers (including
their volumes of the consumption in 2002-06), and describes current standing
and prospects of development of the greatest enterprise-consumers.
The sixth Section of the report appraises possible consumption of schungite in
Russia as a whole and in individual end-uses.
The Appendices contain expert opinions on schungite products and contact
information on producers and consumers of schungite in the CIS.
