Analysis of the present supply-demand situation and the trend of global graphite resource

Graphite，which have the unique physical structure and excellent physical/chemical properties，is not only an wide range of strategic mineral resources，but also the mineral raw materials which is the basis of traditional industry and strategic emerging industries，and also is the important strategic resources which will support the development of high and new technology.China have more graphite resources and more graphite resources consumption than other countries，but China is not the best country of graphite resource yet.In order to make our country become the best country of the word of graphite resource，we have to understand deeply in graphite resource supply and demand situation.This article，from the perspective of graphite resources，mainly analyzes the situation of supply and demand situation of natural graphite.From the angle of graphite resource，global graphite resource is an abundant，China is the third highest country in the world.From the supply and demand situation，graphite production is concentration，and the consumption is decentralize.Graphite consumption structure will be shifting from traditional areas to emerging areas in the future.In the traditional field，demand of graphite will be stable；in the emerging field：demand of graphite will be increasing.
