The smelters in Jiangsu were conducting technical upgrade. The transportation of lead ingot in Inner Mongolia was impeded due to the snowstorms, and the loca downstream users purchased goods from nearby regions. Thus the inventories in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Tianjin all declined.
the power rationing in Anhui eased but was not fully lifted. The COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact the production in Jiangxi. The varied supply is expected to extend. SMM will monitor whether the impact of snowstorms in Inner Mongolia is lifted.
