Overview: 

 The metallurgical industry refers to the industrial sector of exploration, mining, selection, smelting and rolling of metal minerals. It is mainly divided into two categories: ferrous metallurgy and non-ferrous metallurgy. As an important industrial raw material supply sector, the metallurgical industry provides abundant metal materials for all sectors of the national economy, which is the material basis for industrial economic development. As of 2022, the total market size of China's metallurgical industry has reached 13.34 trillion yuan, and it is expected to continue to grow in the next few years. The metallurgical industry is not only a technology, capital, resources, energy and labor-intensive industry, but its output is also an important indicator to measure the economic strength of countries.
