50 milioni / 600 migliaia
m and k are standard financial terminology. The Mt is metric tons.
50 million and 600 thousand metric tons

Well in financial language this is the standard method. and if you follow my link you will see that millions of tons of cement are traded. As for the context, the sentence begins with "various". It would seem normal to then give the largest and the smallest amounts.

| Anch'io ho pensato ad M per million, ma non mi sembra che abbia senso la frase, che include due misure molto diverse tra loro... |

MT=MEGATONNE M=MEGA(1 000 000 X) K=KILO(1000X)
MT might meanmegatonne
600k MT might mean 600 000 megatonne
600 K MIGHT MEAN 600 kilogrammes
I know it looks strange but I cant think of anything else related to cement and building industry

Ma comunque, non so come mai un avvocato puó introdurre delle abbreviazioni cosí discutibili in un documento legale molto importante come un contratto.

| Pensa che si tratta di un contratto ufficiale della ICC! La domanda era per M e K, non per MT che sono tonnellate metriche. |
