[SMM analysis] the arrival volume of Guangdong zinc ingots improved in June or continued to increase in July.

SMM7 March 3: in late June, the smelters overhauled in Guangxi and Yunnan resumed production one after another, and Jinding zinc industry resumed production in June after the completion of the technical transformation. On the whole, the output of the smelters mainly sent to the Guangdong market showed a state of restorative growth.

SMM7 March 3: in June, Guangdong market arrival volume rebounded at a low level, in line with our previous expectations. In late June, the smelters overhauled in Guangxi and Yunnan resumed production one after another, and production resumed in June after the completion of the technical transformation of Jinding zinc industry. on the whole, the output of the smelters mainly sent to the Guangdong market showed a state of restorative growth. During the month, the price gap between Shanghai and Guangdong narrowed to about 80 yuan, and the willingness of smelters to send to Guangdong has improved. Individual smelters have actively cashed out goods and issued inventories in the factory area. The weekly ratio of arrivals in the Guangdong market has continued to improve in the past two weeks, and the overall arrival volume has increased by nearly 7000 tons compared with May.

In July, the production of the smelter is relatively stable, but some of the supply of the smelter will still be diverted to Hunan, Fujian and other places, which will affect a certain amount of delivery. at present, the price difference between Shanghai and Guangdong is still 100 yuan, and the consumption of die-casting zinc alloy in Guangdong is still low. It is difficult for smelters to realize their shipments. We think that the overall arrival volume in July may increase, but the increment is limited.

BMC Minerals reported on October 5 that polymetallic mineralisation at the Rhyolite Peak target within its Kudz Ze Kayah project in Yukon, Canada, had been further extended. Rhyolite Peak is a silver-zinc-gold-copper-lead exploration target located near the proposed ABM mine. The update remains an exploration-stage drilling development and does not constitute a new Mineral Resource, Ore Reserve or production change.

【Flash | DOWA’s H2 Zinc Plan Rises 27%, Potentially Supporting Indium Recovery】
DOWA Holdings plans to produce 113,543 tonnes of zinc in H2 FY2026, up 27.0% from its H1 plan of 89,373 tonnes and 26.8% from the 89,525 tonnes produced in H2 FY2025. Its Akita Zinc operation uses the hematite process to recover indium and other valuable metals at high yields and integrates zinc smelting with rare-metal production and recycling. Higher planned zinc output may increase feed throughput for by-product indium recovery. However, DOWA disclosed no indium production target, and any supply increase will depend on feed grades, recovery rates and operating schedules rather than zinc volumes alone.
