China imported 368,000 tons of manganese ore from South Africa in July of 2010, having recorded the largest quantity per month in the imports from South Africa. Also, China imported the substantial quantities of manganese ore from Australia and Brazil in July and, consequently, the total quantity of manganese ore imported by China in July had a certain increase as a whole.
