Indonesia’s PT Timah targets 30,000t of refined tin output for 2026

Indonesian state tin miner PT Timah has set a refined tin output target of 30,000 metric tons for 2026, and is aiming for sales of 26,000 metric tons, the company’s director Ilhamsyah Mahendra said on Wednesday.

This year’s output target is 68% higher than the 17,815 tons produced in 2025, while the sales target is 56% more than the 16,634 tons recorded last year.

“In the first quarter, we surpassed the production and sales target, and the second quarter is pretty similar. The rhythm was good, the price is high, we must utilize the momentum,” Ilhamsyah told reporters.

The company produced 5,630 tons of refined tin in the January-March period, while sales over the same period reached 6,009 tons.
