Baosteel Resources, the group's resources subsidiary, inked a supply contract for a second year with India's top ferroalloy producer, which produces 140,000 tons of high-carbon ferrochrome annually.

Baosteel did not reveal the contract volume in the statement on its website.

The two companies also discussed cooperation in the supply of coking coal, a key steelmaking ingredient and developing resources overseas.

Ferrochrome is an alloy mainly used to produce stainless steel.
