NICOLÁS GANGUTIA (GANMAG)

Proposals for magnesite refractory production improvement in China
RESUME:
China is by far the first magnesite player: first market, first producer and first exporter.
Magnesite market, in terms of qualities and prices, is driven by Chinese policies. However, in the last 14 months many changes have occurred. These changes were necessary and could create new sustainable and profitable industries for both China and the rest of the world.
This paper will make a diagnostic from mine to end products and propose easy solutions for updating magnesite production in a sustainable and profitable way. Refractory producers will beneficiate from a better quality, more security in supply and better prices for every refractory application.
SUMMARY OF CURRICULUM VITAE
Mining Engineer graduating from the Polytechnic School of Mines in Madrid I also have a Business Adminitration degree from HEC, Paris.
I started my professional career as Process Researcher in Florange Steel Works (Arcelor) in 2000. After Magnesitas Navarras’ acquisition by Timab Roullier Group and Grecian Magnesite, I started in the magnesite business as Sales and Marketing Manager, becoming General Manager and CEO of Magnesitas Navarras in 2006. In 2014 I became Refractories Development Director and member of Roullier Group Magnesite Business’ Board. I have also participated as an expert in the Euromines Committee.
Since June 2016, I have created my own consulting company Badave de Inversiones S.L under the registered mark GANMAG, to offer advanced solutions for magnesite industry. My current customers are magnesite mining and industrial processing companies in Middle East and Europe. I expect to develop Ganmag activity in China.
