  2. Today’s Agenda (Week #3) Extractive industries The tin industry in Malaysia Petroleum

  3. Extractive Industry? What is

  4. What is Extractive Industry? • Any processes that involve the extraction of raw materials from the earth to be used by consumers. The extractive industry consists of any operations that remove metals and mineral from the earth. Examples of extractive processes include oil and gas extraction, mining, dredging and quarrying. • Our focus of discussion will be on TIN and PETROLEUM

  5. Tin History of

  6. General discussions • Tin has been in use since ancient ages and its role has played an important role in the history of the human race. • Around 5000 years ago, human first began mining and incorporating tin with copper to create bronze thus marking the beginning of the Bronze Age. • The Bronze Age is now a recognised stage in the development of civilisation. • How bronze was discovered we do not know, but the peoples of Egypt, Mesopotamia, and the Indus valley started using it around 3000 BC.

  7. General discussions • Tin artefacts have been found in an Egyptian tomb of the eighteenth dynasty which dates around to 1580-1350 BC and it was traded around the Mediterranean by the Phoenicians who obtained it from Spain, Brittany and Cornwall. • In the 19th century, Cornwall was the major producer of the metal, but then deposits were found in Bolivia and East Asia, and today China is the leading producer, followed by Indonesia and Peru.

  8. General discussions • The Chinese were mining tin around 700 BC in the province of Yunnan. • Pure tin has also been found at Machu Picchu, the mountain citadel of the Incas. • When copper was alloyed with around 5 per cent of tin it produced bronze, which not only melted at a lower temperature, so making it easier to work, but produced a metal that was much harder, and ideal for tools and weapons.

  9. General discussions • Nowadays, we cannot imagine anything without this metal, TIN. • Right from cold drink cans to roofs, almost everything has tin. • It is found in both as an alloy and also in pure form to make up thousands of daily items that we take for granted.

  10. General discussions • Tin was originally known as plumbum candidum or white lead in Latin. • Tin is actually a soft white metal which has an unusually low melting point of 231.85 degrees Celsius. Its chemical symbol is Sn, and comes from its more recent Latin name, stannum. The English name, tin, finds its origin from a Germanic root.

  12. Tin in Malaysia History of

  13. Tin mining is one of the oldest industries in Malaya. • The tin mining started since 1820s in Malaya after the arrival of Chinese immigrants. • The Chinese immigrants settled in Perak and started tin mines. Their leader was the famous Chung Ah Qwee. • Their arrival contributed to the needed labour and hence the growth of the tin mining industry. • By 1872, there were about 40,000 miners in Malaya, mostly Cantonese and Hakka.

  14. Tin in Malaysia • In Selangor, tin mining started in 1824. There were about 10,000 Chinese in the state. The majority of them were Hakka. Kuala Lumpur, like Selangor was similarly developed by the hardworking miners. • … In 1857, this is where it all began. A group of 87 miners, all of them Chinese, poled their way up the Klang in search of tin. • At that time, tin was in huge demand, especially by America and the British Empire, which needed the durable, lightweight metal to help fuel their industrial revolutions. • In Ampang, few miles to the east, there were huge reserves of tin, and this spot was the highest point. • They named it "muddy confluence," built a ramshackle, thatched-roof village, and within a month all but 17 of them had died of malaria. It was a devastating beginning to what would become one of Asia's richest cities. 

  15. Tin in Malaysia • Later, more tin prospectors, followed, and within a few years the village thrived. Like all mining boom-towns, it was raucous place, populated almost exclusively by men. • They spent their days in gruelling labor, crouching over tin pans or digging the earth, returning to the town at dusk to console their loneliness in bars, gambling halls, and brothels. • Few got rich, but throughout the peninsula the mania for tin inspired fierce rivalries and claim disputes. • The Chinese miners organized themselves into clans and warring factions called "secret societies." Without a centralized Chinese authority keeping peace, order in the mining areas was nearly impossible.

  16. Tin in Malaysia • Whole clans could be swept up in fights that started over little more than a drunken dispute between two men. • In 1868, needing a solution to the chaos, the headmen of the local clans elected a man named Yap ah Loy as "Kapitan China," or leader of the Chinese community. • With the support of the local sultan, he built prisons and quelched revolts, quickly establishing an infamous reign over the entire Kuala Lumpur mining area.

  18. Tin Mining Activities

  19. Tin in Malaysia • The expansion of tin mining began in the 1870s, with the commencement of pit-working of tin laden sands in valleys all the way down the West Coast region of the Peninsular. • Growing industrial demand for tin, and the discovery of large and rich tin deposits in Larut and Kinta in the state of Perak in the early 19th century led to the disputes among the Malay rulers. • Large scale immigration of Chinese labour which in turn gave rise to Chinese investment, British intervention and domination and finally, injection of foreign, mainly British capital and technology into the Peninsular.

  21. Tin as Commodity

  22. Tin price

  23. Uses of tin • Tin is an important commodity in international trade, but it does not naturally as a metal. • Tin is used in hundreds of industrial processes throughout the world. Tin is widely used in many industries such as in food packaging, culinary equipment, electronics, tin chemicals, plumbing solders, engineering alloys, pewter and bronze in music and the arts, dental amalgams, anti-corrosion and engineering coatings, wine capsules and fire retardants.

  24. Uses of tin • Tin is mostly commonly used in alloys, and in tin plate which is a thin sheet of steel with a protective coating of tin. • Tin plate is used for food cans because it is not reactive to the acids present in food. • Alloys of tin include bronze (combination of tin and copper), pewter (combination of tin and lead), superconducting wire (combination of tin and niobium), Babbitt metal (combination of tin, copper and antimony), bell metal (combination of tin and copper and solder which is a combination of tin and lead). Babbitt metal is used for the surface of bearings. Superconducting wires are used in the manufacture of extremely powerful magnets.

  25. Petroleum History of

  26. General discussions • The Miri oilfield in Sarawak – started production in 1910, Developed by Shell • Petroleum production began offshore from east coast of peninsular Malaysia in mid-1970s • By 1980, petroleum generated 24% of Malaysia’s exports. • By 1990s, 58% of Malaysia’s petroleum output came from Peninsular Malaysia, 28% from Sarawak, 14% from Sabah. • In 2000, petroleum contributed 25% of Malaysia’s revenue.
