SHANGHAI, Aug 10 (SMM) – Social inventories of zinc across Shanghai, Tianjin and Guangdong grew some 7,900 mt from last Friday to stand at 122,800 mt on Friday August 10, SMM data showed.

An increase of 10,300 mt in Tianjin over the week accounted for the rise. The city also saw greater arrivals of Shuangyan, Zijin, and Hongye brand cargoes.

Environmental probes and electricity rationing continued to keep downstream consumption sluggish this week.
