This was down 5,900 mt from last Monday March 15.
Stepped-up production at primary and secondary lead smelters mainly contributed to the rise in social inventories. Besides, rising lead prices kept downstream buyers on the sidelines. Discounts of secondary refined lead expanded as secondary smelters shipped out cargoes actively amid higher lead prices.
