[two standards for magnesium smelting gas distribution section approved] two standards for magnesium smelting gas distribution section, "high temperature pyrolysis gas of low rank coal for magnesium smelting", "clean carbon by-product of high temperature pyrolysis gas of low rank coal for magnesium smelting", drafted by three units of magnesium industry branch of China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, magnesium Industry Association of Fugu County and Institute of Standard Metrology and quality of China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, were approved on August 3, and the current standards have entered the printing and publishing period. It will be officially released and implemented on October 1, 2020.

SMM: two standards for magnesium smelting gas distribution section, "high temperature pyrolysis gas of low rank coal for magnesium smelting", "clean carbon by-product of high temperature pyrolysis gas of low rank coal for magnesium smelting", drafted by three units of magnesium industry branch of China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, Fugu County magnesium Industry Association and China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, were approved on August 3. At present, the standard has entered the printing and publishing period. It will be officially released and implemented on October 1, 2020.

The production of gas by high temperature pyrolysis of low rank coal in magnesium smelting can not only reduce the amount of raw coal, improve the utilization rate of raw coal, but also effectively reduce the capital investment in the purchase of raw coal and alleviate the financial pressure of enterprises. and it can alleviate the overcapacity of carbonaceous reducing agent (blue carbon, clean carbon) market.

The standard solves the problem that there is no standard for low-rank coal pyrolysis gas and by-product clean carbon for magnesium smelting, and provides a standard and theoretical basis for popularizing the magnesium smelting gas distribution section of Fugu mode in the whole industry.

The draft of the standard for the preparation of high temperature pyrolysis gas of low rank coal for magnesium smelting is submitted for review.

Magnesium Inventories Down 3.00% MoM, Regional Disparities Evident Amid Production Cuts and Port Accumulation
[SMM Magnesium Weekly Inventory Brief] This week, social inventories decreased by 3.00% month-on-month, showing a regional divergence. In major production areas, inventory reduction was more pronounced due to the progress of long-term contract deliveries and production cuts by some manufacturers. Meanwhile, Tianjin Port experienced slight inventory accumulation as low-priced resources stimulated traders' stockpiling. Overall, the inventory reduction in production areas provided some bottom support for magnesium prices, but the port inventory accumulation reflects persistent export difficulties, with short-term supply-demand imbalances still awaiting resolution.

Conflicting supply-demand forces persist amid buyer-seller standoff. What’s next for magnesium prices?
Since the start of June, the tug-of-war between sellers and buyers over magnesium prices has been intensifying. The EXW price of 99.90% magnesium ingot (Fugu, Shenmu) moved sideways around 16,300–16,400 yuan/mt, with the trading range narrowing significantly. The magnesium market was mired in a supply-demand stalemate, as end-users' acceptance of high magnesium prices declined markedly, while primary magnesium smelters held their bottom line supported by costs.

[SMM Magnesium Express]Recently, due to a combination of factors including rising fuel costs driven by geopolitical conflicts and reduced turnover efficiency caused by congestion in major European ports, shipping companies have tightened capacity and raised freight rates, leading to a significant surge in international shipping costs. According to SMM research, since late June, the freight cost for magnesium ingots shipped from Tianjin Port to Rotterdam, Netherlands, has reached approximately $130 per ton, up $20 from the beginning of the month, while the average freight cost for the India route has reached $110 per ton, up $10. SMM will continue to closely monitor freight trends and make timely adjustments.
