Investment Rating - The report indicates a positive outlook for the metal manganese industry, projecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.30% from 2025 to 2029, with market size expected to grow from 2,491.23 billion to 3,302.17 billion RMB [4][47]. Core Insights - The metal manganese industry is characterized by strong resource dependence, clear production process differentiation, increasing environmental constraints, and a high correlation of downstream demand with the steel and new energy industries [4][10]. - The market size fluctuated from 1,688.74 billion RMB in 2019 to 1,722.36 billion RMB in 2024, with a CAGR of 0.40% during this period, influenced by factors such as the pandemic, supply-demand dynamics, and costs [4][47]. - The demand for manganese is driven by both traditional steel production and the emerging new energy sector, particularly in battery materials, creating a dual-driven growth pattern [10][53]. Industry Definition - Metal manganese is a transition metal with the symbol Mn and atomic number 25, primarily found in nature in the form of oxides and carbonates, requiring specific smelting processes for extraction [5]. Industry Classification - Metal manganese is categorized into industrial-grade manganese, electrolytic manganese, and manganese alloys, each with distinct purity levels and applications [6][7][8]. Industry Characteristics - The industry is heavily reliant on manganese ore resources, with significant concentration in countries like South Africa, Australia, and Brazil, leading to high bargaining power for large mining enterprises over downstream smelting companies [8][9]. - Environmental regulations are tightening, particularly affecting the electrolytic manganese sector, which has high water and energy consumption [9][10]. Development History - The industry has evolved through several phases, from its nascent stage (1890-1949) to a high-speed development phase post-2000, where environmental concerns became central to structural optimization [11][12][14][16]. Industry Chain Analysis - The manganese industry chain includes upstream mining and ore selection, midstream smelting, and downstream applications in steel, batteries, and chemicals [17][39]. - The upstream segment faces challenges due to high dependence on low-grade ores, with 93.6% of China's manganese reserves classified as low-grade [18][28]. Midstream Analysis - The midstream manganese alloy sector is currently experiencing significant losses, prompting calls for production cuts and industry-wide self-rescue actions [20][22][35]. - The production capacity in the silicon-manganese sector remains oversupplied, with ongoing pressure on profit margins [22][35]. Downstream Analysis - Manganese is a critical additive in steelmaking, with approximately 85%-90% of manganese resources directed towards the steel industry, while only 5%-10% is utilized in battery and chemical sectors [42][43]. - The demand for electrolytic manganese is expected to rise significantly, driven by stable steel demand and the expansion of green manufacturing sectors [44][46]. Market Size and Forecast - The market size for the metal manganese industry is projected to increase significantly, driven by energy transition and technological advancements, with a forecasted growth from 2,491.23 billion RMB in 2025 to 3,302.17 billion RMB by 2029 [4][47][53]. - The report highlights that the global demand for manganese from lithium-ion batteries is expected to rise, indicating a shift in market dynamics [53][54].
