Firm phosphate market in Q1, but now showing signs of weakness ■
In Q1 2017 DAP prices averaged ~US$355/tonne1 and ammonia price averaged ~US$ 285 / tonne2
■
Phosphate and ammonia prices recovered from lows of 2016, due to low exports from China & US, high demand in China, Latin America, etc.
■
DAP demand from India is picking up but there are increasing exports from China on the back of firmer prices in Q1
■
Additional supplies expected in H1 2017 from MWAS and Morocco which may exert pressure on prices
■
Ammonia prices bounced back after a very weak Q4, on reduced supply from the Black Sea.

Aluminium price averaged US$1,858/tonne (LME), up 23% vs Q1 2016 and up 9% vs Q4 2016

Japanese premiums increased in Q1 2017, due to Australian smelter disruptions and higher netbacks for producers. Higher physical premium suggest market is in deficit outside China
■
China is heading towards a balanced market in 2017

Phosphate performance Operational performance ■
■
During Q1, Ma’aden produced and sold 721,000 tonnes and 637,000 tonnes respectively of ammonium phosphate fertilizer, an increase of 5% and 6% respectively as compared to the same quarter last year. The increase in production and sales was mainly driven by improved utilization rates and higher efficiencies, notably increased phosphoric acid production. Ma’aden produced and sold (external) a record 599,000 tonnes and 467,000 tonnes of ammonia, an increase of 97% and 127% respectively as compared to the same quarter last year. The increased production and sales volume is largely attributed to the start of commercial operations of Ma’aden Wa’ad Al Shamal ammonia plant.

Aluminium performance Operational performance ■

Ma’aden’s bauxite mine and alumina refinery operated well. During Q1, Ma’aden produced 369,000 tonnes of alumina, an increase of 5% compared to Q1 2016. Ma’aden made its first external sales of 30,000 tonnes of alumina in the last quarter.

■
During the quarter, our aluminium cash cost reduced significantly, due to increased volumes, decreased fixed costs through strong cost control measures, reduction in some of the raw material consumptions, and lower input costs, notably the lower price of alumina. However, we see some headwinds with the prices of key inputs such as caustic soda and coke prices increasing

Gold and Copper performance Operational performance ■
During the quarter, Ma’aden production of gold increased by 61% to 71,000 ounces compared to the same quarter last year. This was mainly due to increased volumes from Ad Duwayhi mine, Ma’aden’s largest gold mine, which was commercialized on April 1, 2016.
