During the week, miners gradually went on holiday, resulting in limited overall shipments, with many miners holding back from selling. Port manganese ore inventory remained relatively low, and the circulation of spot manganese ore decreased, with miners' quotations remaining firm. Previously, alloy plants had stockpiled sufficient manganese ore for production during the Chinese New Year, leading to weak demand for manganese ore from alloy plants during the week, and the market saw sluggish transactions. Manganese ore prices generally remained stable and firm, with most market participants observing post-holiday restocking by downstream alloy plants and manganese ore shipment conditions.
