The actual molybdenum (Mo) content of FeMo is variable and it is expressed as a percentage of the total weight of FeMo.

PRCs industrial policy with regard to FeMO

Thus, this Chinese producer would probably have no right to export FeMo to the Community in the future.

Available information suggests that the PRC has a very important domestic demand for its FeMo production.

the abolition of export tax rebates on exports of FeMo which took effect before the RIP

According to the relevant Eurostat data, this has led to a moderate increase in imports of Chinese FeMo.

This is clearly pictured in the recent measures taken for FeMo by the Chinese authorities, namely

The two main types of production process used in the production of FeMo are the thermic and the electrolytic processes.

In fact, the company could be regarded as an occasional producer of FeMo performing sporadic sales of the product concerned.

The measures on imports of FeMo originating in the PRC should therefore be repealed and the proceeding terminated.

As to the situation in the PRC, the investigation established that the PRC is currently applying an industrial policy that aims at the restriction of FeMo exports.

FeMo is a ferro-alloy containing usually between 45 % and 80 % of molybdenum, the remaining part being iron and small quantities of impurities.

During the RIP, there were practically no imports to the Community of FeMo originating in the PRC (the country concerned).

As explained under recitals to , since October 2006 the anti-dumping duty applicable to imports of FeMo originating in the PRC is suspended.

It is noted that all FeMo data in the Regulation are adapted as to correspond to the Mo content.
