Tungsten steel scrap market temporarily stabilized wait-and-see, clinch a deal valence slightly to low. But the price is still relatively strong, the market has no obvious decline. Waste wire drawing mould quotation is relatively confusing, some high priced up to 185 yuan /kg, but also 179 yuan /kg low price, not a business mentality, widening price gap. At present, the waste tungsten bit not including tax price of mainstream is still concentrated in the 188-190 yuan /kg, domestic waste tungsten blade 169-171 yuan /kg, imports of scrap tungsten blade 179-181 yuan /kg.

At present, the waste tungsten grinding material 30-40 traders purchase price concentrated in the 1.45-1.5 yuan / degrees, 50-70 degrees concentrated in the 1.55-1.7 yuan / degrees, 70 degrees or more concentrated in the 1.7-1.75 yuan / degree. The market price of resources is still more, the market is not strong, but the early market funds pressure small, price low willingness of shippers. Expected short-term waste tungsten market steady operation.

Tungsten went abroad. 1 evening MB Rotterdam quotation for 40.5-41 dollars / kg tungsten, down 1 U.S. dollars; ammonium paratungstate European price 360-370 USD / ton, Hongkong price 361-370 USD / ton, to continue the steady. The European market is still in the summer season, the downstream demand is very low, the overall turnover deserted, expected short-term overseas tungsten continued weakening operation.

Tungsten market: market funds at the end of pressure increase, the business mentality is also obvious differences, some shippers shipping prices, but still very price stability, weak overall market stability, market of tungsten concentrate market is still continued weak, downstream demand is not optimistic about the overall. It is understood the smelting ferrotungsten manufacturers most has been discontinued, the manufacturer of APT for all the normal production, APT manufacturers in order to reduce the cost as far as possible with lower grade ore, because this week tungsten and tungsten chemical products prices fell again, powder business mentality will be further weakened, price started to drop, expected short-term hard to change the weak pattern.

Tungsten concentrate prices still continued weak market, the downstream demand is not optimistic. It is understood the smelting ferrotungsten manufacturers most has been discontinued, the manufacturer of APT for all the normal production, APT manufacturers in order to reduce the cost as far as possible with lower grade ore, is now the main use of tungsten concentrate grade of 50-60, leading to market more than 55 grade tungsten concentrate price before the close relative.

Because the downstream of tungsten products take the goods difficult and tungsten market short term no significant positive support, so buyers continuing the recent crackdown on inquiry, inquiry 60 degree of mineral wool is only 1.36 yuan / degrees (excluding tax), 60 degrees of tungsten concentrate inquiry is only 1.39 yuan / degrees (not including tax) near. However, it is understood the actual transaction should be higher than the inquiry, 55 degrees of tungsten concentrate without ticket prices in 1.4 yuan / degrees near, more than 60 degrees at 1.42 yuan / degrees near.

Because the inventory cost high, this year the market has no obvious rise of tungsten, tungsten business funds tied up a lot, now some shippers slightly exposed at a loss selling small amounts of tungsten to alleviate the financial pressure will.

Tungsten market: market funds at the end of the pressure increase, partial businessman to withdrawal from circulation of funds, may take measures such as price of shipment, dragged down the overall market downturn, but currently shippers's price will be stronger, tungsten concentrate prices temporarily stabilized, the market price of resources increases, but the volume of co.. Waste tungsten market mainstream still steady watching, the business mentality is weaker, but the price will most certainly is not strong, lack of funds tense businessmen price goods. Therefore, expected short-term tungsten city down space is limited.

For the market mainstream steady. 70 base price is relatively concentrated, high price difference, the current price of mainstream concentrated in between 17.2-17.5 yuan / ton, shippers are reluctant to cut prices go goods, prices slightly stronger.

80 medium market quotation slightly chaos. 80C the lowest to 175000 yuan / ton, but the majority of businesses are still strong in the 180000 yuan / ton. The lowest 80A value can reach 190000 yuan / ton. Expected short-term market stability or weakening operation in ferrotungsten.

Tungsten market continued weakness in demand: tungsten, some manufacturers of products unsalable, the lower reaches of the procurement is not active, traders took the opportunity to keep the prices down, the supply and demand sides deadlocked, resulting in the overall performance of the doldrums turnover. Tungsten concentrate prices temporarily stabilized, the market price of resources increases, but the volume of co.. Ammonium paratungstate price adjustment and the lack of power, the downstream demand is poor, short-term may still not be able to wave, expected short-term market temporary steady watching.

Ammonium paratungstate market steady operation. It is understood, at present the business offer up to 166000 yuan / ton, the actual transaction price in 163000 yuan / tons. Due to the recent tungsten concentrate prices steady, ammonium paratungstate price adjustment and the lack of power, the downstream demand is poor, short-term may still not be able to wave.

Sodium tungstate market high price decline, prices close to low, the recent overall market stability weakening of tungsten, so businesses a price will also fall. High price from 130000 yuan / ton to 129500 yuan / ton, while the actual price was lowered to 124000 yuan / ton. Expected short-term price sodium tungstate market will further the rational regression.

At the beginning of this month, the trade of tungsten has been stable and moving smoothly, but price of tungsten ranges from raw material tungsten concentrate to tungsten finished parts has been staying stable, without the trend of increasing until end of July. 

Tungsten concentrate price has remained 110,000 RMB yuan/ton, and it has been not so high since the beginning of 2014. The above price is for 65 degree tungsten concentrate, and for 60 degree price will be in 2,000 RMB yuan/ton less than 65 degree. As for the stable price of tungsten concentrate, tungsten oxide/trioxide is keeping at 210,000.00RMB yuan/ton for both yellow tungsten oxide and blue tungsten oxide. AMT is almost 205,000.00RMB yuan/ton, and APT 175,000.00RMB yuan/ton.

Important products made from tungsten concentrate, tungsten powder, can be purchased at 295,000 RMB yuan/ton, as a direct result, the price of regular tungsten finished products is stabilized at to 400,000 RMB yuan/ton. So is the trend of tungsten carbide price and tungsten alloy price.

It is also reported from China that owners of tungsten concentrate stay attitude of waiting, or sale the material in spot cash. Therefore, if requirement of tungsten oxide, AMT, APT and other tungsten powder products to prepare some at most or can wait for the price trend in very end of July, reported from Chinatungsten Online.

Imagine a lump of iron the size of a tennis ball. Weigh it in your hand. Now let it drop on to your foot. How does that feel? Now imagine an identical object three times as dense. How would that feel if you dropped it? Would you ever walk again?

That metal is tungsten.

As well as being incredibly dense tungsten is also incredibly hard and has the highest melting point of all the elements at 3,422C.

A century or so ago the world had no use for tungsten - it was almost impossible to shape or work the stuff. Yet now we use tungsten to write with, to traverse glaciers, to emit X-rays and to destroy buildings without the use of explosives.

To understand how this happened, we need to understand the competitive forces that have shaped everything in our world, and where better to start than a mystery at the heart of the evolution of life?

For the first four billion years, life didn't actually do much evolving. Organisms were small, simple and fairly rare. Then around 500 million years ago something extraordinary happened - the fossil records show there was an incredible explosion of life.

"Tungsten makes very good bullets," the military analyst Robert Kelley said. "It is the kind of thing that if you fire it at someone else's armour, it will go right through it and kill it."

And just like the creatures of the Cambrian period, once someone starts using teeth (or tungsten bullets) you need to do something about it.

"If you introduce tungsten into your bullets you've got to introduce tungsten into your armour," says Mr Kelley.
