【新品种】铂钯系列（二）：全球铂金供需格局

Group 1: Report Industry Investment Rating - No relevant content provided Group 2: Report's Core View - The global platinum supply is highly concentrated with low elasticity, and there is a supply - demand imbalance in the market [1][4][11] Group 3: Summary by Related Catalogs 1. Global Platinum Supply Pattern 1.1 Global Platinum Supply Concentration and Elasticity - South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Russia are the main suppliers of global platinum. In 2024, South Africa's platinum output decreased by 4% year - on - year to 120 tons, accounting for 71% of the global total. Zimbabwe and Russia each accounted for 11%, and other countries' total output accounted for only 8% [1] - Long - term trends, under - performance of new projects, mine depletion, and shutdowns have continuously restricted supply, resulting in insufficient output elasticity of major global platinum - producing countries. In 2024, factors such as power outages and production restructuring led to a decline in global platinum output [1] - In 2024, global platinum production was 195.9 tons. Global mined platinum output decreased by 567 kg to 155.9 tons, and the proportion of recycled platinum was 20.4%. The global platinum recycling volume increased by 3% year - on - year to 39.97 tons. It is expected that in 2025, global mined platinum output will decrease by 4% year - on - year to 150.1 tons [4] 1.2 Platinum Global Balance - The main consumers of global platinum are China, Europe, North America, and Japan. China's demand accounts for 26% of the global total, with industrial demand being the largest. Western Europe and North America account for 20% and 18% respectively, with automotive catalyst demand being the largest. Japan accounts for 9%, mainly in automotive catalysts and jewelry. India's industrial demand is small, but its automotive catalyst and jewelry demand are increasing, and its future demand is expected to exceed Japan's [6] - In 2024, global platinum group metal demand decreased by 1.6% year - on - year to 198 tons, with a global platinum supply shortage of 1.98 tons. Automotive industry platinum demand decreased by 3% to 63.4 tons, jewelry demand decreased slightly by 0.3 tons to 38.3 tons, industrial demand remained flat at 63.4 tons, and hydrogen energy demand increased slightly by 0.3 tons to 2 tons [11] - The global platinum balance sheet shows trends in mine production, recycling, total demand, and supply - demand differences from 2017 to 2025f [13]
