• Resumen

  • Many major minerals could be affected if the US goes ahead with a plan to raise the import tariff on China-origin materials as the trade war between the two countries gathers pace.

    The government of the United States is considering an increase to 25% for the proposed import tariffs on a range of Chinese mineral commodities, up from the original proposal of a 10% rate.

    There will be a consultation period before new, higher tariffs are imposed. The US government has extended its previous deadline for submission of comments from August 30 to September 5.
