Thanks Russ. Interesting that it mentions MBG...

<<Australia's largest tin miner, Marlborough Resources NL (Australia:MBG.AX - News), said it aimed to more than double output this year>>

I hold a small position in this. It's one of the few tin miners in the world I could find that can be traded easily. It has a float of about half a billion shares at 5 cents -- equivalent to a market cap of about US$20 million.

Regards,
Howy

i can understand why china would use most of its tin and not export much now (article says china has 35% world market share of tin), but i can't understand why indonesia would not be exporting tin (article says indonesia has similar tin market share as china) like crazy at these prices. am i overlooking something in indonesia (like a war zone where the tin is mined?)?
