European ammonium paratungstate market (APT) offering prices edge up on higher tungsten prices in China.

Due to the recent price fluctuations in the China tungsten concentrate market, European traders of APT increased mainstream prices by USD10mtu last week, leaving offers between USD365-375mtu in warehouse Rotterdam on Friday.

Although the rally on tungsten concentrate abated to a degree in China last week, the figures did hold firm, and many market participants in Europe still expect further increases in the China ammonium paratungstate market (APT) export price. In Europe, downstream consumers continue to show limited demand for APT and continue to work through existing inventories.

Central African origin tungsten concentrate export prices firm, strong demand from China buyers.

Cautiously optimistic downstream tungsten users in both the China and European markets seem confident that tungsten concentrate prices would be supported at higher levels than currently seen. 

The export prices of tungsten concentrate 60%min WO3 from Central Africa have firmed a further USD5mtu over the past two weeks to range between USD280-290mtu CIF China, and many suspect further increases will be felt through June as Chinese plants continue to show strong demand for material.

China, as the world’s largest Tungsten resource county, holds 58.95% of global tungsten reserves and supplies around 85% of tungsten ore worldwide. In 2012, China newly added 200,000 tons of tungsten (WO365%) reserves and output of 131,100 tons of tungsten concentrate (WO365%), down 3.35% from a year earlier. Exposed to the restrictive policies on control of exploitation amount and export quotas as well as new limited prospecting of resources, etc, the supply and demand in tungsten market is obviously out of balance, and it is expected that China’s output of tungsten ore will see limited growth in the upcoming several years, and that global tungsten market will be still in tight supply according to report China Tungsten Industry Report, 2012-2015.

The slowdown in downstream demand from machining, electronics, real estate markets in 2012 caused the sluggish development of China tungsten industry, with the consumption of tungsten concentrate (WO365%) decreasing by 15.6% year-on-year and the lingering price slump.

Starting from Mar.2013, the demand for tungsten products at home and abroad saw a huge surge, with the selling price on a gradual rise says the report.
