CAMPBELL RIVER (Scrap Monster): This year's winner of the Campbell River Hospital Foundation's scrap metal challenge was T-MAR Industries. They collected $5,000 worth of scrap metal and donated the proceeds to the foundation.

The grand total raised this year was just over $12,000. Over the last five years $70,000 has been raised. This year’s funds will go towards two new pieces of equipment for the emergency room.

A glidescope will secure a patient’s airway and is a critical piece of equipment, said Carly Pisterzi, communications director for the foundation. A portable ultrasound will enable physicians to gather accurate information quickly and make faster and more precise diagnoses.

The metal was collected by ABC Recycling, Marine Link Transport and Coastline Towing.

Sluggish Transactions in Domestic Secondary Crude Lead Market, Prices at 15,250-15,400 Yuan/mt

The domestic secondary crude lead market experienced sluggish transactions. As of February 6, 2026, the ex-factory tax-exclusive offers for domestic secondary crude lead stood at 15,250-15,400 yuan/mt. Downstream refined lead and alloy smelters gradually entered the holiday period, showing weak stockpiling willingness. Overseas lead ingot suppliers basically halted transactions with China due to poor consumption in the Chinese market, with only some previously concluded shipments maintaining normal in-transit transportation. The trading atmosphere in the secondary crude lead market will continue to weaken next week.
