Prices for medium and high-grade nickel ore, for future delivery, were up last week due to supply tightness, Shanghai Metals Market reports.  

SHANGHAI, Dec. 19 (SMM) – Prices for medium and high-grade nickel ore, for future delivery, were up last week due to supply tightness, Shanghai Metals Market reports.  

Supply of medium and high-grade ore is now tightening due to the monsoon season and environmental crackdowns in the Philippines, SMM explains.

“Supply shortages are expected to continue supporting medium and high-grade ore prices, but light trading on the other hand will also curb the rising strength,” SMM points out.  

SMM expects low-grade nickel ore price to rise slightly, both for spot and future delivery, for the foreseeable future.
