Market participants said that considering the current tight supply of germanium products in the market, along with the reluctance of many manufacturers to sell, and the fact that a previous batch of zone-refined germanium ingots and germanium dioxide from Guangxi Yusheng Germanium Industry High-tech Co., Ltd. fetched high prices at auction, with zone-refined germanium ingots selling at 16,100 yuan/kg, and given that the quantity of germanium products for sale this time is significantly less than the previous batch, market participants believe there is a high likelihood of successful transactions. SMM will continue to follow up and report on the tender results.
