*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 number of transactions on the Shenhua Auction platform remains mediocre although prices hardly changed from the previous session. Market players continue to monitor the movement closely after an abrupt pick-up in buying activities reported the day before.
