Traded prices of spot aluminum in Shanghai were between RMB 15,970-16,000/mt on Wednesday.

SHANGHAI, May 16 (SMM) – Traded prices of spot aluminum in Shanghai were between RMB 15,970-16,000/mt on Wednesday, with discounts of RMB 10-30/mt over the SHFE current-month aluminum price. Low-iron aluminum was traded between RMB 16,060-16,080/mt in Shanghai. Traded prices of spot aluminum in Wuxi were between RMB 15,990-16,010/mt and traded prices in Hangzhou were between RMB 15,990-16,010/mt. SHFE 1206 aluminum contract became the current-month aluminum contract with prices hovering around RMB 16,000/mt. Since goods supply was sufficient but purchases by downstream buyers were sparse, spot prices failed to increase, causing discounts over the SHFE current-month aluminum price to expand. Transactions were mainly done at low prices.

Indonesia's Ban on Bauxite Exports Leads to Negative Effects, Surplus Bauxite Difficult to Consume

The implementation of Indonesia's ban on bauxite exports since June last year has led to bauxite surplus, brought challenges to consume domestically as the Indonesia's alumina plants have limited capacity. Ronald Sulistyanto, Chairman of the Indonesian Bauxite and Iron Ore Entrepreneurs Association (Asosiasi Pengusaha Bauksit dan Bijih Besi Indonesia - APB3I), highlighted the struggle to secure external investment for alumina plant projects, while some entrepreneurs are forced to cut costs or halt production. However, there is hope for relief through potential relaxation of the export ban policy. Efforts are underway to boost alumina production capacity, although challenges persist in addressing the surplus bauxite issue.
