The import value of molybdenum ores and concentrates to China is forecasted to steadily decline from 2024 to 2028, starting at $169.6 million in 2024 and decreasing to $158.99 million by 2028. In 2023, imports stood nominally higher as compared to the 2024 forecast. The year-on-year percentage change highlights a moderate decline, averaging an approximate annual contraction indicative of a slight downward trend.
Key future trends to watch include China's industrial policies affecting demand, global market fluctuations in molybdenum pricing, and potential supply chain shifts. These factors may influence the import dynamics beyond the immediate forecast period.
