根据国际铅锌研究小组（ILZSC）公布的2013年全球供需预估报告，2013年全球锌精矿产量将增加2.3%至1392万吨；精炼锌产量将增加5.2%至1325万吨。五大锌精矿国产量大都增长。

随着我国经济向低碳、节能、环保方向发展，铜加工业也进入微利化和精细化时代，所面临的最大问题是铜资源短缺、铜价和人工成本不断推高、铜加工业调整转型势在必行，技术和产品向高精尖方向发展，对此我国铜加工业必须不断通过技术创新发展短流程、节能、减排、自动化、连续化生产工艺，发展利用再生铜资源直接生产铜加工材技术，以确保我国铜加工工业持续、稳定的发展，促进产业升级。

铅基本面仍面临进一步的好转，特别是年底蓄电池将迎来需求旺季。而汽车、电动车、移动基站等保有量更换需求为铅需求提供稳定增长的源泉。供应方面产出增速将落后于需求增速。因此，铅价在目前的位置仍具备向上突破的动力，上行空间仍存。若不出现显著宏观系统性风险冲击，下半年LME铅价2150-2450美元/吨，而沪铅则将运行于14500-16000元/吨区间。

2013年1-4月，全球铅矿产出同比减少2.2%，其中，中国铅矿供应维持稳定，澳大利亚、美国及欧洲都出现相应的负增长，尤其是澳大利亚同比减少了7.2%，主要因必和必拓位于澳大利亚的Cannington矿山品位下降。而CRU数据显示，中国上半年产量增长逾8%，因此上半年全球铅矿供应依然小幅增长，CRU预计三季度澳大利亚及中国铅矿将分别增长19%及7%，三季度全球供应同比将增长5%。预计由于中国铅矿的增加以及澳大利亚下半年产量的进一步增加，今年全年全球铅矿供应依然保持稳定增长。

根据调查，每辆汽车的平均耗铜量在15-22公斤，按照2012年汽车产量1927万辆计算，2012年消费铜的数量在28.9-42.4万吨。同时考虑我国有超1.2亿辆的汽车保有量，如果有5%数量的汽车需要维修，那么有600万辆汽车需要9-13.2万吨的铜及铜材。综合来看，汽车行业耗铜在37.9-55.6万吨，占总用铜量的4.25%-6.95%。

2013年，欧债危机仍在持续，中国经济增速略有放缓，钨市在通过国家收储、钨矿采购等多种手段后逐渐摆脱2012年的疲软之势，在经历了多次涨跌行情后价格终归是呈上行之势，且市场现货供应基本处于偏紧状况，进一步促进其价格的抬升，另一方面也导致钨品出口缩减，进口扩大等格局。

Heat treatment is a controlled process that is used to adjust the microstructure of materials such as metals and alloys. It alters the metallurgical properties of such materials to increase surface hardness, strength, temperature resistance, and ductility of the components present in them. Heat treatment assists companies across industries to develop high precision products with superior quality. Heat treatments are adopted by several industries such as Aerospace, Automotive, Engineering Machinery, Rail, and Power. The Global Heat Treating market is a steadily growing engineering market. Currently, the market is dominated by North America, and it is followed by the APAC region. Bodycote plc, Bluewater Thermal Solutions Corp., and Dowa Group are some of the prominent vendors in this market. The market is expected to witness an improvement in its growth rate and post a CAGR of 7.27 percent during the period 2012-2016.

中期来看，在美国经济持续复苏的基调下，黄金价格仍将处于下行周期，特别是三季度美联储货币政策退出的预期将始终存在，下半年的黄金价格走势不乐观。短线来看，1320-1330美元将是一个金价相当重要的阻力位，若能有效突破该关口，后市金价可能指向1400美元上方平台。中长线可选择等待后期逢高沽空的机会，但目前仍以观望为主。

Powder metallurgy involves combining fine powdered materials, pressing them into a desired form or shape, and then heating the pressed material in a controlled environment to bond it. It replaces the conventional metallurgy process of melting and pouring, casting, drawing, welding, and forging metals or alloys. There is nearly zero percent wastage of the input material in the powder metallurgy process and almost 97 percent of the input material is retained in the final product. Thus, powder metallurgy is more economical than conventional metallurgy; it also improves the operational efficiency and increases the productivity of manufacturing plants by reducing material waste.The Global Powder Metallurgy market was valued at US$20.5 billion in 2012 and is expected to be worth US$25.20 billion by 2016, growing at a CAGR of 5.30 percent. Europe dominated the market and accounted for 40.39 percent of the overall market share in 2012. It was followed by the APAC region, which accounted for 31.27 percent share of the overall market share in the same year.

我国铜加工业通过引进、消化吸收和自主创新，在关键技术和装备上取得重大突破，建成了一批具有世界先进水平的现代铜加工生产线，缩小与世界先进水平的差距。未来铜加工生产技术是向短流程、连续化、自动化、节能、环保、精密质量控制、降低成本等方向发展。
