Correction to cobalt hydroxide min 30% Co, cif China, $ per lb, rationale on April 17: pricing notice

Fastmarkets has updated the rationale to its cobalt hydroxide min 30% Co, cif China, $ per lb, which lacked information on future pricing dates due to a reporter error on Thursday April 17.

The rationale has been updated to include the following information: Owing to UK public holidays on April 18 & April 21, the cobalt hydroxide cif China price will next be published on April 22. This is in accordance with Fastmarkets’ pricing schedule.

The affected price is as follows:

MB-CO-0020 Cobalt hydroxide min 30% Co, cif China, $ per lb

This price is part of Fastmarkets’ minor metals package.

The published price is unaffected by this change.
