Dear Users:
Hello:
To ensure data consistency with the source and respond to customer feedback, we have expanded the unit of zinc-related import and export data in the non-ferrous metals database to the smallest level. Core changes: Units such as "10,000 mt" and "mt" have been changed to "kg". The specific details are announced as follows:
I. Reasons for Adjustment
Due to the need for country-specific breakdown of imports and exports, the unit has been adjusted to the smallest value
To better serve customers, SMM has expanded the import and export data related to the zinc industry chain to include all countries. This will result in the previously set units such as "mt" and "10,000 mt" being unable to match data from all countries. Therefore, SMM has changed the unit to the smallest value.
II. Adjustment Details
III. Effective Date of Adjustment
This adjustment will take effect on August 8, 2025
