 1Wherever possible, detailed information on raw material source of output
(primary—directly from ores, and secondary—from scrap)
has been
provided. In cases where raw material source is unreported and insufficient
data are available to estimate the distribution of the total, that total
has been left undifferentiated (primary and secondary). To the extent possible,
this table reflects metal production at the first measurable stage of metal
output. Table includes data available through July 15,1986.
