Two selenium: the domestic electrolytic manganese market has been stable for a long time, and the price of two selenium has stabilized for a long time, so that the purchasing mentality of manganese factory is certain, and the raw material crude selenium of two selenium suppliers is not much cheap, and the holding cost can not be reduced.

Therefore, the transaction price of selenium dioxide is unchanged at 85 to 90 yuan / kg during the week.
