SMM, October 12: According to SMM, Baiyin Nonferrous Group’s Northwest Lead-Zinc Smelter held a public tender last weekend for the sale of approximately 220 mt of crude cadmium, which was successfully concluded. According to official sources, the transaction price was settled at a slight discount to the SMM average price for #1 cadmium. Market participants noted that, given the recent strength in cadmium prices, the successful tender at a relatively high price reflects solid market demand.
