[SMM Lead Market Flash] The supply of domestic lead concentrates remains tight, and the imported ore market is still dominated by sellers. Despite more overseas silver ore bid prices emerging in late May, lead smelters were unable to accept these silver ores due to a lack of sufficient lead concentrates and crude lead for ore blending. Although the price of imported ore pb60TC has declined somewhat, smelters' intention to purchase remains low, and the market still shows a situation where prices are quoted but there is little actual trading.
