According to the ITA, China Minmetals notified the ITA that it had no shipments after the deadline for such notifications, and did not respond to any ITA questionnaires. Therefore, China Minmetals was assigned the adverse facts available (AFA) China-wide rate. These preliminary results are not in effect. The ITA may modify them in the final results of this review and change the estimated AD cash deposit rate for these companies.
