The listing price of rare earth oxide holmium oxide in southern China rose 7000 yuan per ton, and the market demand for medium and heavy rare earths was weak.

Published: Apr 28, 2020 17:10

SMM4 28: China Southern rare Earth Group Southern rare Earth International Trading Co., Ltd. announced the latest heavy rare earth oxide listing price, some oxide prices have been adjusted. In terms of price changes, erbium oxide listed price 148000 yuan / ton, down 2000 yuan / ton compared with the previous period; gadolinium oxide listed price 153000 yuan / ton, up 1000 yuan / ton over the previous period; holmium oxide listing price 352000 yuan / ton, 7000 yuan / ton higher than the previous period. In addition, the prices of many varieties remain stable, with samarium oxide listing price of 12000 yuan / ton, europium oxide listing price of 200000 yuan / ton, dysprosium oxide listing price of 1.82 million yuan / ton, terbium oxide listing price of 4 million yuan / ton, ytterbium oxide listing price of 100000 yuan / ton, lutetium oxide listing price of 4.2 million yuan / ton, yttrium oxide listing price of 20, 000 yuan / ton, scandium oxide listing price of 9 million yuan / ton

On the spot side, the prices of most rare earth products held steady last week, with praseodymium neodymium oxide and metal praseodymium neodymium prices rising slightly during the week. Light rare earths, praseodymium and neodymium oxide prices rose slightly within the week, mainly because the upstream market merchants after a brief recovery in the previous demand after the quotation continues to maintain a strong state of low price shipment willingness is limited, the market lower price supply is difficult to find. Praseodymium and neodymium metal prices also rose, although the upstream business quotation is relatively strong but downstream demand remains relatively weak, resulting in praseodymium and neodymium oxide prices significantly up the action can be weak. In terms of medium and heavy rare earths, the prices of dysprosium oxide and terbium oxide were all the same during the week, the market was expected to close and reserve during the week, the upstream quotation remained strong, and the market demand was relatively weak, resulting in a flat stalemate in dysprosium oxide and terbium oxide prices.

[Magnesium Alloys Lead New Quality Productive Forces, Hydrogen Storage Goes Global + Vehicle Weight Reduction Reaches New Peaks] China’s magnesium alloy sector achieved two major breakthroughs, demonstrating the strong capabilities of indigenous innovation. On the one hand, a large-scale magnesium-based solid-state hydrogen storage device equipped with proprietary technology was successfully loaded at Shanghai Waigaoqiao Port and shipped to Malaysia, addressing longstanding pain points in traditional hydrogen storage and transportation and filling a gap in international maritime transport technology. On the other hand, the semi-solid injection-molded magnesium alloy seat frame assembly of FAW Hongqi was successfully installed, marking a key upgrade in vehicle lightweighting, with significant weight reduction achieved for each assembly. Spanning the two core fields of hydrogen storage and transportation and vehicle lightweighting, these achievements accelerated the scaled-up application of the magnesium alloy industry.

[SMM Magnesium Weekly Review: Magnesium Market Continued to Consolidate at High Levels, with Cost Support and Demand Stalemate Persisting] This week, the overall magnesium industry chain continued to consolidate at high levels, with prices of all categories remaining largely stable. The raw material dolomite market operated steadily, with differentiated supply across regions but overall stability, while the procurement pace on the demand side remained steady. The magnesium ingot market remained in a supply and demand stalemate, as producers showed strong reluctance to sell, and low circulating inventory supported firm quotations. However, both domestic trade and foreign trade demand appeared weak, transactions were sluggish, and FOB quotations stayed at high levels, though actual deals were limited. The magnesium powder market remained stable with a firm tone, domestic trade demand continued to recover steadily, foreign trade growth was limited, and cost support remained in place. The magnesium alloy market's benchmark price held steady, processing fees remained firm, enterprise operating rates rebounded, and downstream demand gradually recovered, though the pace of growth slowed, with overall transactions remaining mild. Looking ahead, the tug-of-war between cost support and weak demand is expected to continue, and the market may continue to consolidate at high levels.
