Minerals yearbook, 1993: Tungsten. Annual report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6797242
Total reported domestic consumption of tungsten in primary end-use categories increased by about 10% in 1993 compared with that of 1992. Demand generally increased in the cemented carbide end-use sectors that included the combined cutting tool, mining tool, oil drilling equipment, and wear-resistant component industries. Demand for mill products made from metal powder as well as demand for tungsten chemicals and directly reusable tungsten scrap also increased in 1993. Counter to these increases was a decrease in the use of ferrotungsten in steels, which included the tool, alloy, and stainless steel sectors.
