	List of steel producers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It should be noted that the International IronandSteel Institute still reports and analyzes its rankings in terms of steel volumes.
		This can either be obtained by studying the company financials, or by estimating the average selling price per tonne of steel shipped (based on product mix) multiplied by the shipped tonnes in that year.
		It is not clear how this compares to a ranking based on steel volumes, but is likely to represent the value added elements in the steel making process.
