CISA estimated the country's total production based on its members, including more than 80 large steel mills that account for about 80 percent of China's total steel output.
CISA members produced 1.76 million tonnes of crude steel on an average daily basis during the first 10 days of August, growing by 5.5 percent from the preceding period.
