A mining enterprise in Inner Mongolia region said, it shipped out 150 tons of molybdenum concentrate yesterday at 2250-2260 yuan / mt, grade of 42-43%. However, it’s difficult to trade at that price today, so people are mainly waiting and seeing without ship out. A mining enterprises in Jilin said, they offer 2,280 yuan / mt, but no company placed orders, and they think it is difficult to conclude transactions, so they intended to lower shipping prices. A mining enterprise in Shaanxi province said somebody intended to accumulate supply and bid 2,230 yuan /mt yesterday but the enterprise did not ship. However, according current market situation, prices are likely to fall. According to major mines and intermediaries situation, it can be seen that molybdenum concentrate transaction are scarce, and it’s difficult for some mining enterprises to ship out, so the market is probable to drop.
