SMM, June 13 / PRNewswire-Asianet /-

In the morning, Russia and nickel leveled water to 50 yuan per ton of water compared with Wuxi 1906, while individual traders reported 100 yuan per ton of water, making it difficult to deal with the transaction. Although the domestic import window opens recently, the source of goods flows in, and the goods are taken downstream in general, but the holder has a strong willingness to lift the water, the main expectation is that the back structure will expand in the later period, the market may be squeezed, and the low-priced goods are not easy to receive. Jinchuan nickel generally reported a water rise of 900 yuan to 1, 000 yuan per ton compared with Wuxi 1906 contract. The rising water is basically stable, and Jinchuan Company is mainly shipping in the near future. Jinchuan ex-factory price quoted 99300 yuan / ton, up 500 yuan / ton from yesterday, the mainstream transaction at 98350 99400 yuan / ton.

[SMM Nickel Flash] US Faces 742,000 mt Nickel Deficit by 2035 Amid Zero Smelting Capacity

The United States currently operates no domestic nickel smelters, leaving North America entirely reliant on just two remaining pyrometallurgical facilities in Canada. Compounding this critical supply chain vulnerability, a recent report by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace projects that the US will face a massive annual nickel deficit of approximately 741,987 tonnes by 2035. To address this severe shortfall, awaruite (a naturally occurring nickel-iron alloy) is emerging as a strategic solution. Because awaruite concentrate can bypass traditional smelting and be directly converted into nickel sulfate, it is favorably positioned to qualify for the US Section 45X Advanced Manufacturing Production Credit, helping to secure domestic defense and EV battery supply chains.

[SMM Nickel Flash] Canadian Awaruite Project to Bypass Smelting with 60% Ni Concentrate

According to industry reports, the Pipestone XL project in Newfoundland, Canada, is advancing its awaruite (Ni₃Fe) nickel-cobalt deposit to supply the North American defense and energy storage sectors. Awaruite, a naturally occurring, sulfur-free magnetic alloy containing approximately 77% nickel, enables the production of a high-grade ~60% nickel concentrate through simple magnetic separation and flotation. This unique metallurgical profile completely bypasses carbon-intensive pyrometallurgical smelting and early hydrometallurgical stages like high-pressure acid leaching (HPAL).

[SMM Stainless Steel Flash] European Stainless Prices Hit 18-Month High Amid Rising Costs

According to market research, European stainless steel producers successfully lifted prices in March, driven by rising scrap costs, volatile energy prices, and limited import competition. Transaction prices for grade 304 cold-rolled coil reached an 18-month high as all European producers implemented month-on-month increases. Domestic mills are seeing improved order books, with lead times now extending into June and some delivery delays reported, particularly for ferritic materials. Producers are targeting further increases for July production, with some offers for grade 304 cold-rolled sheet already around $2,916/mt (EUR 2,700). Market participants note that mills aim for a target selling price of approximately $3,240/mt (EUR 3,000) in the coming months.
