Besides, data of sectoral and regional mass-media, yearly and quarterly reports of companies, as well as web-sites of enterprise-producers and consumers of boron products.

The first Section of the report presents data on world market of boron (reserves, production, prices).

The second Section of the report is devoted to description of boron deposits in the CIS.

The third Section of the report presents data on mining and production of boron in the CIS.

The fourth Section of the report presents data on current standing of producers of boron products in the CIS.

The fifth Section is devoted to foreign trade operations in boron products in Russia and Ukraine. In addition, it analyses export-import prices on boron acid, borax, calcium borate and other products.

The sixth Section of the report describes consumption of boric acid in Russia. The Section presents supply-demand balance of the product, sectoral pattern of consumption and its change, as well as current standing and prospects of development of the greatest enterprise-consumers.

The seventh Section of the report presents forecast of Russian boric acid market development (production, export, import and consumption) up to 2015.

Appendix presents addresses and contact information of enterprises, producing and consuming boron acid.
