China's Antimony Ore Imports Surpass 10,000 Tons in April 2026, Driven by Narrowing Price Spread
On May 20, SMM reported that according to customs data, China's import volume of other antimony ores and concentrates reached 1,367.99 tons in April 2026. This marks a continued significant increase compared to the March import volume of 9,262.27 tons, and for the first time this year, the monthly import volume surpassed the 10,000-ton mark. Market participants noted that with the recent decline in international antimony product prices, the domestic-international price spread has narrowed considerably, making the rise in antimony ore imports understandable.
