India Info Online.com reports that there is anticipation that tin supply will not increase, as Indonesian production will be down.

The story is quoted as saying:

Indonesia the world s second largest tin producer and largest exporter exported much less of the base metal again in December as year on year exports fell 9.2% to 7722 tons. For the full year Indonesia exported 92487 tons of tin a decline of 6.9%. An exceptionally long rainy season on account of the La Nina weather phenomenon badly hit Indonesia s tin production and transport especially in the second half of the year says Commerzbank.
