[China Iron Ore Brief Review] Iron ore concentrate prices in the Chengde region are expected to remain stable
[China Iron Ore Brief] The EXW price of 65% grade iron ore concentrates in the Chengde area, on a dry basis and tax-inclusive, remains at 925 yuan/mt. According to SMM tracking, following successive accidents at mines in the Kuancheng region of Chengde, local mines and beneficiation plants are currently in a state of suspension. This has intensified the overall tightness of local iron ore concentrate resources, providing strong support for local iron ore concentrate prices. On the demand side, steel mills and traders mostly purchase as needed, with a strong overall desire to bargain down prices.
