Brazil Tantalite Exports Remain Troublesome to Trace
Brazilian tantalite exports face chronic difficulty amid smuggling charges against a U.S. investment group in Brasilia. Trade sources say shipments have fallen since 1982 while one French-owned miner dominates, exporting from Sao Joao del Rei. The metal fuels steel and rocket applications, with prices volatile around 1.50 to 5.50 per pound, and shipments require government seals and free-range fissionable material disclosures.
