iconDec 31, 2025 16:53

This week, market demand remained relatively stable without significant changes. Price-wise, conventional models at cathode plants were generally quoted above 380,000 yuan/mt, while high-voltage models were quoted around 395,000 yuan/mt, in line with actual transaction prices. Overall, after the New Year's Day holiday, LCO prices may further increase due to the price increase of upstream cobalt tetroxide.
