SMM estimates output from Chinese zinc smelters in December to drop 5.4% from November due to tighter concentrate supply and plant maintenance

SHANGHAI, Dec.18 (SMM)－SMM estimates output from Chinese zinc smelters in December to drop 5.4% from November due to tighter concentrate supply and plant maintenance. Zinc concentrate treatment charges (TC) are therefore forecast to be generally stable in December without momentum to go up.

According to our calculations, Chinese domestic zinc concentrate production in December is set to drop 1.4% year on year and 0.7% month on month due to mine suspensions and maintenance.

For the whole of 2017, output is set to fall 2.7% from the previous year.

A Short Squeeze May Occur Overseas Followed by the Domestic Market

On the one hand, Teck Resources has signed an annual zinc concentrate contract with a 45% increase in TCs to $230/dmt. An escalation clause was included: if the prices of zinc exceed $3,800/mt, TCs will rise by $0.05/mt for every $1/mt increase in the prices of LME zinc, but if the zinc prices fall, TCs will remain unchanged (the same as the 20%/80% price sharing scheme in China).
