SCO summit to affect 5% monthly output of high-grade NPI

High-grade nickel pig iron (NPI) plants in Shandong province were required to cut one-third of their productions from Friday May 25 in response to the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit.

SHANGHAI, May 25 (SMM) – High-grade nickel pig iron (NPI) plants in Shandong province were required to cut one-third of their productions from Friday May 25 in response to the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit to be held in Qingdao on June 9, SMM learned.

The cut is expected to last for 15 days and some 2,000 mt in nickel content will be affected. This accounts for 5% of China's high-grade NPI monthly output.

An estimated 7,000 mt of low-grade NPI output will be affected due to the SCO summit. That equals to 30% of the current tradable volume of low-grade NPI in the market.

Exclusive: China's base metals output in October

China’s copper cathode output increased month on month in October, as there was basically no maintenance at smelters and as large-scale smelters maintained high production in Q4. Although domestic copper scrap was in short supply in October, smelters kept relatively ample stocks of blister copper. Furthermore, as the new secondary copper policy took effect from November 1, concerns over copper scrap supply were eased.
