Shanghai Sanqian New Energy Materials paid 5.91 million yuan for the cobalt inventories held by the now-defunct exchange

SHANGHAI, Oct 8 (SMM) – Shanghai Sanqian New Energy Materials paid about 5.91 million yuan for 21 mt of cobalt metal inventories held by the now-defunct Fanya Metal Exchange in a day-long auction that ended at around CST 10:00 on Sunday October 6.

The intermediate court of Kunming, the capital of Yunnan province, posted the auction on China's biggest e-commerce platform Alibaba.

The latest auction of cobalt stocks from the bankrupt Fanya exchange came after a string of auctions of rare earths, antimony and tungsten.

Downstream buyers cited “cost increases” to push back, yet conveniently forgot the upstream losses quietly absorbed over the past three years. This was never about simple cost pass-through—it was a restructuring of profit distribution across the chain.
