IMD at Chromium 2024 & Key Industry News
Greetings from the Independent Mineral Distributors (IMD) Team!
As we approach the festive season, we have some important updates to share with you! From industry news to event highlights and our holiday schedule, here’s what’s happening at IMD.
Industry News: Key Insights in the World of Industrial Minerals
The global mineral market continues to experience some exciting shifts, especially in the chrome and specialty-grade mineral sectors. Recent reports indicate that the demand for chrome sand remains strong, with South Africa continuing to lead as the top supplier of chrome ore. However, production constraints, particularly in specialty grades, have led to some supply shortages, which is influencing pricing and availability globally. As one of the key players in the chrome sand market, IMD is closely monitoring these developments to ensure we continue providing our customers with high-quality products, despite these challenges.
Another significant trend we’re observing is the increased demand for high-purity minerals across industries, including ceramics, glass manufacturing, and metal processing. As the world shifts toward more sustainable production methods, minerals like Micro Talc and Green Chromic Oxide are seeing heightened interest for their performance and eco-friendly qualities.

The IMD team had the privilege of attending Chromium 2024 in Cape Town, where we had the opportunity to connect with key industry leaders and innovators.
