Gold and Other Non-Ferrous Metal Processing in Australia - Industry Market Research Report

Gold and Other Non-Ferrous Metal Processing in Australia

Refined gold volumes are anticipated to total 283.5 tonnes in 2023-24, down from 293.0 tonnes in 2018-19. Despite strong gold demand, refining volumes dropped off as production was hamstrung by border closures and restrictions.

The Gold and Other Non-Ferrous Metal Processing industry mainly processes semi-refined gold and spodumene concentrate (lithium). Mining firms supply the industry with semi-refined gold and gold doré where they are further processed into refined gold. Lithium processors are vertically-integrated into lithium mining operations and act as a value-added function before export. Some industry firms also smelt, refine and manufacture other non-ferrous metals like silicon and titanium.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
