*Auction and Deal volumes are in tonnage 

*All USD equivalent prices only exclude the 13% value-added tax (VAT). They have not taken into account other costs that might incur in the selling process, i.e. import duty, customs clearances.

                 

The mediocre number of transactions recorded on the Shenhua auction platform comes as a surprise considering the fact that the maker has not adjusted the deal prices compared to the previous day. Market participants said manufacturers continue to face weak end-product demand from both local and overseas buyers, which clouds the outlook.
