This week, the market price of antimony ingots rose, the international price rose by $200 / ton, and the domestic market price rose. At present, the manufacturer’s mentality is still strong, and the reluctance to sell has the upper hand. Affected by the expected tight supply of raw materials of antimony ore, most antimony ingots of domestic mainstream manufacturers are sold in limited quantities. At present, the price of antimony ingots is still at a relatively high level in history. At present, the downstream has a strong fear of heights, mainly on the whole, and the downstream purchases on demand.

As of August 20, the market price in Hunan is: 2# antimony ingot 68500 yuan / ton, 1# antimony ingot 70500 yuan / ton, 0# antimony ingot 71500 yuan / ton.

The current round of price rise is mainly boosted by the shortage of raw materials, but the recent market performance is not very clear, and the market wait-and-see mood is heavy. It is expected that the price of antimony ingot will maintain a volatile trend in the short term.
