SMM News, June 22: According to SMM, the Third Smelter of Baiyin Nonferrous Group Co., Ltd. started an open tender today for the sale of its 66 mt of 1# refined cadmium. Specifically, according to official information, the bid floor price was at a discount of 500 yuan/mt, with the highest bidder winning. This project required registration from three parties to proceed normally with the auction. The registration deadline was 17:00 on June 24, 2026, and the bidding start time was 15:00 on June 25, 2026. Interested clients needed to register as suppliers on the Longdao platform at www.longdaoyun.com. Market participants said that, due to the relatively subdued trading sentiment in the cadmium market, end-user buying interest was insufficient, but prices remained relatively stable. As the period gradually approaches Q3 and market stockpiling before the summer break, there may be an increase in end-user stockpiling in the future. Therefore, this tender is also highly noteworthy, as it can, to some extent, reflect the strength or weakness of market demand.

Magnesium Plant Maintenance Drags Weekly Output; Strong Supply and Weak Demand Sustain Inventory Buildup [SMM Magnesium Weekly Data]

[Magnesium Plant Maintenance Dragged Down Weekly Output, Supply Strong and Demand Weak with Continuous Inventory Buildup] This week, the magnesium ingot market in the main production areas retreated after a rapid rise. At the beginning of the week, maintenance positives supported prices, but high downstream inventories and fear of high prices suppressed transactions, with some producers offering discounts to sell, putting magnesium prices under pressure and causing them to weaken. Tianjin port FOB prices passively followed the decline in China’s EXW prices, as sluggish demand during the summer break outside China and elevated ocean freight rates suppressed deals. Dolomite prices were stable, providing limited cost support. Magnesium powder and magnesium alloy prices first declined and then stabilized, following the trend of magnesium ingot. Downstream sectors such as steel mill desulfurization, titanium sponge, and die-casting enterprises entered the off-season, with transactions remaining sluggish, leaving the oversupply pattern unchanged. In the short term, the magnesium market will continue to move sideways.
