Alumina and prebaked anode price drop by RMB18/t and RMB25/t; A00 aluminium ingot price also declines

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

According to Shanghai Metals Market, the average spot price of alumina has started the month with a drop of RMB 18 per tonne to RMB 2,457 per tonne, as of August 1, 2019. With this, the price records a month-on-month decline of RMB 301 per tonne. Since the end of May, the spot alumina price is registering a sluggish trend ranging between RMB 3119 per tonne, as of May 29, to RMB 2,457 per tonne today. The rise in alumina import into the market and therefore, the lesser consumption of domestic production could be one of the reasons for this incessant drop in the spot price of alumina.
