Tin stands for a ductile, malleable, silver white crystalline metal with a bluish tincture, chemically symbolysed as Sn. The element occurs mainly in alloys, like lead/tin soft solder, typemetal, bronze, pewter, and low temperature cast alloys. Tin is utilised in tin foil, containers; it is also a great helper in steel plating for anti-corrosion purposes. Owing to its low toxicity levels, tin-coated metal (steel) is used in food packaging. Tin is chiefly derived from the mineral cassiterite (or tinstone) wherein it is present as SnO2 (tin dioxide).
Tin ore deposits are concentrated across-the-board, notably in Asia and South America. China, Indonesia, Peru, Brazil, Congo, Vietnam, Australia are some of the major tin manufacturing nations of the world. Company-wise, China’s Yunnan Tin is the globe’s biggest tin manufacturer and exporter. Other players encompass, among others, Malaysia Smelting Corporation (MSC), PT Timah, Minsur, Thaisarco, Yunnan Chengfeng, EM Vinto, Metallo-Chimique, and Gejiu Zili.
