Chinese spot lead is expected to move between 13,100-13,300 yuan per tonne next week, SMM lead group estimates.

SHANGHAI, Jul. 3 (SMM) – Chinese spot lead is expected to move between 13,100-13,300 yuan per tonne next week, SMM lead group estimates.

Lead smelters will move goods out normally while downstream buyers should mainly purchase at low for immediate requirements due to large stocks for finished products despite of alleviated liquidity pressures. High temperature will also curb their production, further cutting downstream demand.

Thus, spot lead should move between 13,100-13,300 yuan per tonne next week.

LME lead may try to break through $ 1,800 per tonne next week with upbeat technical indicators and narrowing cash-to-three month contango.

SHFE 1508 lead finds support at the 20-day moving average but resistances at 13,100 yuan per tonne and the 30-day moving average also emerge. Thus, the contract should test resistance at 13,100 yuan per tonne next week.

South32 Raises Hermosa Taylor Capex by Over 50%, Delays Production to 2028 H1
On April 30th, South32 raised the development cost estimate for the Taylor deposit at its Hermosa zinc-silver project in Arizona, US, and delayed the timeline. First-stage capital expenditure has increased by more than 50%, from $2.2 billion in the 2024 FS to $3.3 billion. First production has been delayed by one year to H2 FY2028, full production has also been pushed back to FY2031. Cost increase was mainly due to contractor underperformance, slower-than-expected construction productivity, scope changes, inflation, US tariffs and higher input costs. Progress on a key ventilation shaft is the main bottleneck now. But the company also noted that ore reserves at Taylor increased by 52%, mineral resources rose by 10%, extending the expected mine life from 28 years to around 33 years.
