eEstimated. pPreliminary. rRevised. NA Not available. W Withheld to avoid disclosing company proprietary data; not included in -Total.- -- Zero.
1World totals, U.S. data, and estimated data are rounded to no more than three significant digits; may not add to totals shown.
2Table includes data available through October 7, 2011.
3In addition to the countries listed, ferrotungsten is produced in China, Russia, and Vietnam; Austria, China, and Germany are thought to have-
produced ferroniobium (ferrocolumbium); and Iran is thought to have produced ferromolybdenum and silicomanganese, but production-
-information is inadequate for the formulation of estimates of output levels.
4To the extent possible, ferroalloy production of each country has been separated according to the furnace from which production is obtained;-
production derived from metallothermic operations is included with electric furnace production.
5To the extent possible, ferroalloy production of each country has been separated to show the following individual major types of ferroalloys:-
ferrochromium, ferrochromium silicon, ferromanganese, ferromolybdenum, ferronickel, ferroniobium (ferrocolumbium), ferrosilicon,-
ferrovanadium, silicomanganese, silicon metal, and spiegeleisen. Ferroalloys other than those listed that have been identified specifically in sources,-
as well as those ferroalloys not identified specifically, but which definitely exclude those listed previously in this footnote, have been reported-
as -Other.-- Where one or more of the individual ferroalloys listed separately in this footnote have been inseparable from other ferroalloys owing-
to a nation-s reporting system, deviations are indicated by individual footnotes.
6Reported figure.
7Includes high- and low-carbon ferrochromium.
8China currently makes several different types of ferronickel. These products range from a low-nickel pig iron (8.5%-9.0% nickel) to high-nickel
ferronickel carbonyl powder (70%-80% nickel). The gross weight figures are based on average estimated content ranging from 20%-25% nickel.
9Includes, if any, ferrochromium silicon, ferronickel, and silicomanganese.
10Reported on a fiscal-year basis, which is from April 1 to March 31.
11Includes charge chrome and ferrochrome.
12Excludes calcium-silicon.
13Includes high- and low-carbon ferrochromium and ferrochromium silicon.
14Includes calcium-silicon, ferrocolumbium, and other ferroalloys.-
15On February 17, 2008, the Kosovo Assembly declared independence from Serbia.-
16Salable products from C-a Minera Autl-n S.A. de C.V.
17Low-iron ferronickel containing greater than 85% nickel.
18Includes ferronickel chromium and Ni-resist cast iron produced from scrap.
19U.S. output of ferrochromium includes chromium metal, high- and low-carbon ferrochromium, ferrochromium silicon, and other chromium materials.
20U.S. output of ferromanganese includes silicomanganese.
21Net production.
22May include ferroboron, ferrocolumbium, ferromolybdenum, ferrophosphorus, ferrotitanium, ferrovanadium, nickel columbium, and silvery pig iron.
23Includes ferrophosphorus and data contained in -Blast furnace: Other.-
24Ferrochromium includes ferrochromium silicon, if any, for Japan, South Africa, and the United States.
25Includes ferroaluminum, ferroboron, ferronickel magnesium, ferrosilicon magnesium, ferrosilicozirconium, ferrotitanium, and ferrotungsten.
