  • The industry welcomed announcements that duties will be imposed on imported magnesia, graphite and chromite from non-EU countries.Liz Newmark The European industrial minerals industry has reacted positively to the European Union Council of Ministers’ formal approval in December 2017 of new anti-dumping rules. [...]AEGIS Europe, an alliance of 29 companies representing EU manufacturing interests, and including Euromines, the European association of mining industries, metal ores and industrial minerals, and ceramic industry association Cerame-Unie, said on November 16 that “to be truly effective, EU industry depends on the Commission to vigorously apply and enforce the new rules”. The Commission said the anti-dumping measures “are formulated in a country-neutral way and in full compliance with the EU’s WTO [World Trade Organisation] obligations.” [...]a Chinese ministry of commerce official based in Brussels disagreed, arguing “the new law granting separate treatment for imports under ‘significant market distortions’ does not comply with WTO rules.”
