40% of gold bars adulterated with iridium or tungsten

In the last decade, the price of gold has increased from about 280 dollars per ounce to recent 1,600 dollars per ounce, with a rise of more than 3 times. It was really a gold decade of gold investment.

It has ever been circulated online that fake gold bars with tungsten as its core are likely to appear in the gold market. It is said that these fake can be tested by means of chemistry, weight and X-ray as the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3 while that of tungsten is 19.25 g/cm3.

Besides, it only cost 50,000 dollars to manufacture a 400-ounce-weight fake gold bar with tungsten core, far cheaper than a pure gold bar with the value of about 480,000 dollars.

Active Tungsten Market Situation after May Day

The tungsten market is active after May 1st, and APT price keeps rising, maintaining at between 125000 and 127000 yuan per ton, among which some higher transaction price reached between 128000 and 130000 yuan per ton.

In tungsten concentrate market, sellers are still reluctant to sell out, even at 80000 yuan per ton.

The new order for tungsten carbide powder is transacted at between 203 and 205 yuan per kg, and the quotation reached 210 yuan per kg directly because of raw material shortage, consequently, there are few new concluded orders.

Foreign clients have placed comparatively many orders before tungsten price went up, so the export volume to Japan began to decline. There is no obvious improvement of downstream hard metal and tungsten material demand, while upstream market raw material supply is seriously tight, mainly because mineral holders are reluctant to sell when powder and APT enterprises are badly in need of purchase.
