Most of the mines in Indonesia have been set up during the last century, while mining in Europe has a history of more than 800 years. Indonesia possesses large proven reserves and deposits of ferrous and non-ferrous metal ores as well as coal, oil and natural gas. New deposits and additional reserves are expected to be explored in the upcoming years. Exploration activities are booming because of large areas still being unexplored or only partly explored and high commodity prices. Europe’s deposits have already been mined to a great extend. Most areas are very well explored, especially if they are prone to bear metals, coal, oil or natural gas. Volume and even more price wise Europe has an increasing demand for nearly all commodities. Higher volumes are mainly driven by the export orientated machine and car manufacturing industries. Higher prices for commodities are currently mainly driven by China’s demand, which is booming for nearly all commodities. In order to meet the increasing demand nearly all major mining companies shift their activities from Europe to other areas, especially to South and North America, Australia and promising areas in the Far East like Indonesia. Europe is therefore an increasingly important trade partner for Indonesia. Indonesia is vice versa an increasingly important partner for Europe to secure a diversified raw materials supply.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Australia,Car manufacturing,Commodity prices,Europe,Indonesia,Mining companies,Ore mining,Trade partners[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Europe,Indonesia,Ore mining[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
