Ferrotungsten market demand continues to slump, but this week the price of tungsten iron temporarily run stability maintenance, manufacturers offer firm. The main reasons are: tungsten iron market started low, home smelter shutdown, a further increase production and reduce supply, continued strong supply of tungsten iron very price conscious manufacturers; most stops offer supply, there is still a small part of the factory inventory to inventory-based sales, only single-digit manufacturers to continue production.

It is understood that the tungsten iron manufacturers have to maintain old customer oriented, newly signed large orders difficulties. Hunan, a large minority continue to adhere to the production of the factory, they are 70 base ferrotungsten cash price of 163,000 yuan / ton this month have some turnover.

Tungsten market: the market price of tungsten ore was essentially flat with the previous weekend, the market volume was light. November orders for support by the Pan Asia, the recent stability maintenance APT prices temporarily weak, the mainstream market prices concentrated in 14.5-14.7 yuan / ton, the manufacturers of new single small sign, go hard goods, the latter price or more concentrated in the low range. Tungsten carbide powder and weaker prices continue to run, recycled tungsten carbide manufacturers to stop more, some businesses have no intention of quotes and trading, as a result of supply and demand are in the doldrums, it is the overall turnover is very quiet. WC weaker prices continue to run, some businesses are still willing to take low-priced goods. Tungsten carbide factory shutdown regeneration more, some businesses have no intention of quotes and trading, because of supply and demand are in the doldrums, so the overall turnover is very lonely.

Today, the market price of tungsten ore essentially flat with last weekend, the market volume was light. Cautious miners operate, hold stocks very price conscious and more strong cash requirements, control production of tungsten concentrate smelter at home, take the goods difficult. Downstream APT smelter home in mid-November due to the procurement of certain raw materials, temporarily to meet production requirements, so the current procurement will be lower.

According to research from tungsten concentrate smelter family understood that due to the demand on the market today ferrotungsten few, tungsten iron market is also low operating rate of high-grade tungsten concentrates (65 degrees) demand is very small, so the second half of this year, they produce tungsten concentrate mostly around 55 degrees, the main supply APT manufacturers. Because the market is not in circulation high grade tungsten concentrate, tungsten concentrate mainstream market prices also led to low.

Tungsten ore demand is expected this week to break hard, tungsten ore prices firm weakness, but market sentiment or more full-bodied, businesses or wait guided introduction in December, a small drop in the price of tungsten or stable based.
