Tin - A Global Market Review

NEW YORK, Feb. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:

Tin - A Global Market Review

http://www.reportlinker.com/p0164499/Tin---A-Global-Market-Review.html

Tin has and is gaining favor in view of the increasing awareness about the harmful effects of exposure to lead. Tin is among the earliest metals to be identified and used. About 80% of tin deposits are in the form of unconsolidated alluvial deposits and the most important concentration of these deposits are in South-east Asia (extending from China to Thailand, Myanmar and Malaysia, and Indonesia in the south). The remaining share of tin deposits is in South America mostly in the form of chief hard rock veins or nodes.

These and other market data and trends are presented in "Tin: A Global Market Review" by BizAcumen, Inc. Our reports are designed to be most comprehensive in geographic coverage and vertical market analyses.
