Chromium ore, primarily ferrochromium-bearing minerals like chromite, is essential for stainless steel production, accounting for approximately 80% of global demand, alongside applications in refractory materials, chemicals, and pigments. International trade focuses on two principal grades: lumpy ore (6–8mm) for direct smelting and fines (−6mm) requiring agglomeration before processing. Major producers include South Africa, which controls roughly 70% of global reserves, followed by Kazakhstan, India, and Turkey as significant exporters. Buyers should verify chromium trioxide (Cr₂O₃) content, typically ranging from 40–52%, as this directly impacts smelting efficiency and final ferrochromium yields; certificates of analysis from accredited laboratories are essential for contract compliance.
