ТЕКСТ Б Mineral Markets

Market is a place where buyers and sellers of a given commodity meet to determine price. Mineral markets are material goods markets, and many are regarded as world markets.

Strictly speaking, markets for any particular mineral exist at several stages of production and for several levels of quality. The petroleum market, for example, is divided into:

— a market for light petroleum

— a market for heavy petroleum

— a market for low-sulfur petroleum, etc.

The importance of various types of products in international trade, however, varies continuously. Now that the oil-exporting countries are increasingly building up their own processing facilities, for instance, crude oil is less important in international trade and is being replaced by petroleum products.

Supply and demand determine the structure of any particular market. A structural analysis must thus consider the number, geographic distribution, and market participation of producers and consumers as well as the communications and competition between them. The production of minerals is influenced by geologic conditions and therefore market analysis needs to be conducted by mineral economists with good geologic inside knowledge.

The form of market is defined by the extent of free competition. It constitutes the sum of all factors influencing


250_____________________________________________ Unit 10

competition and hence pricing. Empirical investigations on market structure are usually confined to determining the number, size and market position of the buyers and sellers. It is assumed that a large number of producers and consumers implies competition resulting in an economically efficient price: a small number, imperfect competition, where the price can be influenced; and one single producer or consumer, the absence of competition and the possibility of price fixing.

World trade in mineral commodities is dominated by petroleum, natural gas, coal, metals and some industrial minerals. There is, also, a substantial amount of trade in copper, lead and zinc concentrates.

World markets for minerals are generally quite competitive and most metal prices are subject to a high degree of fluctuation over the business cycle.

As for nonfuel mineral resources it should be stressed that over the past half-century continuous exploration aided by technological advances has increased reserves of most nonfuel minerals faster than they have been depleted. Besides, the development of seabed minerals could provide large supplies of copper, nickel, manganese, cobalt and other minerals for many generations to come. International trade in nonfuel minerals is important to hold down raw material costs in industrial countries.

23. Ответьте на следующие вопросы:

1. What is a market? What is a mineral market?

2. What is more profitable to sell: crude oil or oil products?
Why?

3. What determines the structure of any market?

4. What is the role of structural analysis?

5. Who is responsible for conducting mineral analysis?

6. What is the role of competition in free-market economies?

7. What is world trade in mineral commodities dominated by?
8.What do you know about nonfuel resources and seabed

minerals and their role in international trade? 9. Do you know what industrial minerals are?

10. Do we have large reserves of nonfuel minerals?

11. Why is international trade in nonfuel minerals important?
