In China’s cobalt sector, market participants are mulling price hikes because of the weakening yuan, yet they are still hesitant given the sluggish mood in the market.  

Taylor had claimed wins in Japan, Perth and Sydney ahead of the PDC's debut in Auckland, and overcame Craig Caldwell and Simon Whitlock with superb displays to reach the last four.

He also looked on course to move into the final when he stormed into a 4-1 lead, taking out 78, 85 and double 16 before punishing a missed bulls-eye from Lewis in the fifth leg by following up a 174 score with a stunning 131 checkout.

Lewis replied with a 180 and double ten and landed a further two maximums in the seven, only to be left reeling once more as Taylor took out 121 on the bull for a 5-2 cushion.

A fifth maximum in four legs helped Lewis to kick-start his resurgence in the eighth leg, as double 18 hit back before he finished double 16 and double 12 to level the contest.

Taylor's 76 finish edged him back ahead before Lewis landed double 14 to level, but the 16-time World Champion again moved clear as he followed a third-dart double eight with double 12 to take an 8-6 lead.

Double ten saw Lewis respond in the 15th, and he hit six perfect darts with two 180s in leveling the contest in the next at eight-all.

Taylor again found another effort, hitting a 180 and taking out 122 on double 16 for a 12-darter to move 9-8 up and to the brink of victory, but Lewis finished a 14-darter on double eight to force a decider.

Nerves hit both players, with Taylor first to a finish only to miss four darts at double top and ten to claim victory, allowing his rival to sneak back in and finish 48 on double 16 to snatch victory - leading for the very first time in the game with his final dart.

Van Barneveld had won through to his second World Series of Darts final with a fine 10-6 win over battling James Wade in their last four clash at the Trusts Arena.

After the opening two legs went against the throw - as van Barneveld kicked off the game with a 180 and landed double 12 before Wade leveled with a 111 finish - the left-hander traded maximums and double top finishes with his opponent as he took a 3-2 advantage.

A missed bulls-eye from Wade to take a 4-2 lead was punished as van Barneveld posted double 16 as he embarked on a seven-leg surge, finishing 64 on double eight, double one, tops, double five and checkouts of 72 and 76 to move 9-3 up.

He also kicked off the 13th leg with a 180, but a missed match dart allowed Wade in to finish 100 to stay in the game, and a further four chances went begging for the Dutchman in the next as the left-hander hit double ten to continue his revival.

Wade then hit a 180 and tops to win a third successive leg, but the five-time World Champion was first to a finish in the next and took out double 16 to seal his spot in the decider.

Van Barneveld's narrow defeat extends his wait for a World Series of Darts title, having previously reached the 2013 Dubai Darts Masters final, and he said: "It was a fantastic match.

"At times during the final I was a few legs behind but then I got it to the final leg, and of course I'm disappointed when you miss darts to win.

"Yesterday I hit a crucial finish on the bulls-eye in the last leg against Michael van Gerwen which put me into the semi-finals, and today I missed five darts to win. If you don't hit it, your opponent will."

The Dutchman added: "The crowned were simply amazing and it was a privilege to play here.

"We gave them a fantastic match and I'm so proud to be in the final with Adrian - he's a fantastic champion."

Tungsten darts are popular among professional players, when comes to the big event like Auckland Darts Masters, players would choose tungsten dart to get higher score in games, for tungsten darts are denser, smaller than other materials darts.

Lewis, though, fired back with 180s in the next three legs as he took out tops, double 12 for a 12-darter and a sensational 123 bulls-eye finish - after van Barneveld missed the same middle double - to take a 3-2 lead.

He then posted three 140s in winning leg six to move 4-2 up, with van Barneveld enjoying six perfect darts with two 180s in the next as he responded with a 12-darter of his own.

The pair traded double eight finishes before Lewis fired in a 180 and a 102 checkout, with van Barneveld replying with a maximum and double 16 to stay in touch at 6-5.

Lewis, though, landed another maximum in an 11-darter before breaking throw on double 16 in the 13th leg - despite a van Barneveld 180 - take a three-leg lead at 8-5.

Van Barneveld, though, took the next three to level, taking out 65 on tops, double four to punish three misses from Lewis and 86 on the bull, to follow up two 180s, as he squared the game at eight-all.

A pair of double top finishes saw Lewis move out to 10-8, but van Barneveld hit six perfect darts for the second time in the game as he stayed in the contest with a 13-dart finish, before hitting his 11th maximum and double nine to send the game all the way.

Two 140s to open the final leg from van Barneveld were followed by a 171 score from Lewis, with the Dutchman initially missing double eight and four to take the win.

Lewis was then unable to land double four and two to take out 68, but when van Barneveld missed three further match darts, with two at double four and one at double two, the 30-year-old composed himself before stepping up to hit the winning double one.

Lewis' semi-final had also gone all the way, as he ended Taylor's 14-game winning run on the PDC World Series of Darts with a sensational 10-9 win in an equally dramatic deciding leg.

As for professional games like Auckland Darts Masters, we recommend tungsten darts. Nowadays, tungsten darts are the most popular darts among professional players. Because they found their value are far more than price. It’s all known that tungsten is a high-density metal, so it makes tungsten darts smaller than other materials (in the same weight).

Lewis had ended Taylor's bid to win a fourth successive World Series of Darts event with a superb 10-9 semi-final win in a game which he never led until hitting the winning double 16.

He then returned to the stage to contest a thrilling final with van Barneveld, which also went the full distance as the Stoke star bounced back from his defeat in last week's Sydney Darts Masters to finally go all the way.

Lewis hit back from 2-0 down to lead 4-2, and also moved 8-5 and 10-8 only for van Barneveld to twice level, with the Dutchman taking his tally of 180s for the match to 11 as the game moved into a deciding leg.

With almost 5,000 fans on the edge of their seats at the Trusts Arena, van Barneveld was first to a finish in the final leg only to miss five match darts as Lewis recovered from two misses of his own to steady his nerves and fire in double one for glory.

"This is brilliant and it ranks up there as one of the greatest tournaments I've ever won," said the two-time World Champion. "I had a dart to go 9-6 up and missed, and when Raymond got level I thought I'd blown it.

"He was outstanding and it's one of the best performances I've ever seen from him - every time I turned around he seemed to be hitting a 180 and he made it really tough.

"On that final double I had to stop and to be honest I was looking for someone in the crowd to throw the double one for me! I took my time and thankfully it went right in the middle.

"It's very special to be the first winner in New Zealand. Phil Taylor's always said to me about trying to be the first player to win when we go to a new country, and I'm over the moon to be the first winner here in Auckland.

"I've beaten Gary Anderson, Phil Taylor and Raymond van Barneveld in the last three matches and it can't get much tougher than that. It's massive and I think I've done really well.

"I learned from the final in Sydney and my consistency was great. I've had a couple of semi-finals on the World Series, the final last week and now won in Auckland, so I'm really happy with that."

The inaugural event in Auckland was a huge success with 15,000 fans attending the three days at the Trusts Arena, and Lewis added: "This is one of the best crowds we've ever played in front of, and I think all the players would say that.

"Everybody enjoyed the darts and gave us great support."

Van Barneveld made the early running in the final, landing a 180 and double 12 to take the opener and double 18 to move two legs up.

Tungsten darts become the most popular darts among professional players, because tungsten darts are made of high-density metal, so they can be smaller than darts with other material. Besides, tungsten darts have delicate knurling, which make them worthy of being collected.

THE first tungsten concentrates have come out of the ground at Plymouth's huge £130million metal mine – meaning it is now in operation.

The final victory followed up a semi-final win for Lewis over Phil Taylor as he collected his first PDC World Series of Darts accolade.

Phil Taylor's bid to win a fourth successive PDC World Series of Darts title continued with an 8-3 romp against Simon Whitlock, as the 16-time World Champion averaged 107.37 and finished eight doubles from 11 attempts to sweep into the semi-finals.

Taylor was in relentless mood as he claimed the game's opening seven legs without reply, and though Whitlock produced a three-leg rally it was not enough as the top seed sealed the win.

Taylor finished 62 and 89 to win the opening two legs in 14 and 12 darts, before punishing three missed doubles from Whitlock in the third with a sensational 170 maximum checkout.

Back-to-back 14-darters were followed by an 11-dart finish as Taylor took a six-leg lead, before he checked out 102 to maintain his dominance.

Taylor also landed a 180 in leg eight as he targeted a whitewash, but Whitlock took out a brilliant 135 finish to claim his first leg.

Taylor's 177 in the next was bettered by a 180 from the Australian, who then finished double 16 to continue his revival and 100 to pull back to 7-3, but the 55-year-old fired in a 171 score to pull clear in leg 11 before double ten sealed an emphatic display.

"Simon's back was against the wall but he was determined that he wouldn't give in, and to be honest he had nothing to lose at 7-0 and he started to relax and enjoy himself," said Taylor, who whitewashed Craig Caldwell in Friday's first round.

"When he got a couple of legs back he probably started to think he could win it, so I'm glad I got it finished when I did.

"I can look forward to the semi-finals now because I'm enjoying myself and my form is building steadily throughout the tournament. I want to win this and it's all come together."

Taylor will take on Adrian Lewis in the last four in a repeat of last week's Sydney Darts Masters final, after the number four seed produced a clinical display to knock out World Champion Gary Anderson 8-4.

Lewis took command from the start, matching Anderson's 180 with a maximum of his own before punishing missed doubles from the Scot to take out tops and double 16 to win the opening two legs.

Double ten saw Anderson get off the mark, with Lewis taking out 120 to move 3-1 up before an 11-darter saw the World Champion hit back once more as the pair traded 180s once again.

Anderson then kicked off the sixth leg with two 180s, but after missing out on a nine-darter went on to lose the leg as Lewis landed double four, before tops and an 83 finish moved the Stoke ace 6-2 up.

Anderson took out 126 and 127 to win two of the next three to stay in the hunt, but Lewis had finished 87 on tops to move to the brink of victory before taking out double 16 for a 14-darter to seal his spot in the semis.

"Gary's one of the best players I've ever played against, so to go up there and win 8-4 means a lot to me," said Lewis.

"My finishing in the whole World Series has been pretty poor; my scoring has got me out of jail and when I've been under pressure I've taken out massive shots, but tonight my finishing was awesome.

"My finishing in these first couple of games has been fantastic, and now that I'm feeling confident in my finishing it will take a phenomenal performance to beat me. It will be a belter against Phil and he knows this will be a tough game."

The TAB Auckland Darts Masters concludes on Sunday evening at the Trusts Arena, with the semi-finals to be followed by the final of the PDC World Series of Darts event.

Tungsten darts become the most popular darts among professional players, because tungsten darts are made of high-density metal, so they can be smaller than darts with other material. Besides, tungsten darts have delicate knurling, which make them worthy of being collected.

Wade and Wright had shared the wins from their previous two meetings in Perth and Sydney, but it was the left-hander who progressed to the last four by out-scoring his rival by four 180s to three and crucially winning seven legs out of eight on his favorite double top.

Wright claimed and immediate break of throw in the game's opening leg before Wade replied in kind, hitting a 180 and tops to level before taking the next on the same bed, after the colorful Scot missed a dart to break.

Wright landed a 180 and tops to level in leg four, but Wade finished 58 to edge back in front and then took the next two to move 5-2 up, following up a 101 checkout to punish three misses from his rival before then taking out 99 with two double tops.

One rare miss at tops from Wade allowed Wright to hit back in leg eight, and the pair traded 180s in the next before a superb 121 bulls-eye finish saw the gap cut to 5-4.

Both players also landed 180s in the tenth, but with Wright waiting on 40 to level the game Wade produced a key 82 finish to regain a two-leg cushion.

Wright's miss at double 16 in the next allowed Wade in to move 7-4 up, again on tops, and though the number three seed took out 62 to stay in the game, it was only a brief rally as the left-hander hit a 180 and a rare double ten to seal the win.

"Peter didn't play his natural game and I made the most of it," said Wade. "I'm really happy with how I hit double top and I felt good today.

"There's always room for improvement and I'll have to have more in the tank, but my game's never been about big finishes and big scores, it's always been about hitting that finish at the right time.

"It's a different day for the semi-finals and final but I'm excited about it. I know I can beat anyone in the world, but if you talk the talk you've got to walk the walk."

Tungsten darts already become the only choice of most professional players, because they found its value far more than price. It’s all known that tungsten is a high-density metal, so it makes tungsten darts smaller than other materials (in the same weight).

The five-time World Champion overcame his Dutch rival for the second successive weekend, following up last week's convincing triumph in Sydney with a battling comeback to thrill the 5,000 crowd at the Trusts Arena.

Van Gerwen had powered into leads of 3-0 and 4-1 before van Barneveld turned the tables to move 5-4 up, and though the world number one edged back ahead he was made to pay for two missed match darts as his rival claimed a dramatic win.

After double 18 helped van Gerwen win the opening leg in 14 darts, he took out 101 to break and then double five to win a third leg, and though double 12 got van Barneveld off the mark, an 88 checkout saw the 26-year-old move 4-1 up with a 12-darter.

Van Gerwen, though, missed the bull for a 170 finish and two further darts to win the next, with double ten seeing van Barneveld hit back before he took out 96, double eight and double 16 to amazingly move 5-4 up.

Double five saw van Gerwen hit back before he produced a sublime 167 checkout to regain the lead at 6-5, and after his opponent leveled on double one another 14-dart finish put the world number one a leg away from victory.

He opened the 14th leg with a fourth maximum of the game, but two misses at double eight to claim victory allowed van Barneveld to take out 64 on double 16 to force a decider before the five-time World Champion took out 84 on the bull to snatch a dramatic win.

Van Barneveld now takes on James Wade, produced a master-class in double top hitting as he overcame Peter Wright 8-5 to win through to the semi-finals.

"There's always a lot of pressure playing Michael because we're so close and he was determined to win after I beat him last week, and you could see his focus early on in the game," said van Barneveld.

"I came back but in the last leg you expect Michael to hit a 180 or an 11 or 12-darter, but he gave me a chance and it was a huge relief when that last dart went in the bulls-eye.

"So many times in the last few years I've lost games in the last leg, so finally the coin flipped my way today.

"It would be fantastic to reach the final and hopefully if I can beat James Wade in the semis then I can win the final, but James is a top class player and you know what you're going to get."

Tungsten darts already become the only choice of most professional players, because they find its value far more than price. It’s all known that tungsten is a high-density metal, so it makes tungsten darts smaller than other materials (in the same weight).
