Correction to decision to amend methodology, delist certain grades for North American non-ferrous scrap dealer buying prices

Fastmarkets has corrected the notice regarding the decision to delist certain grades of its North American non-ferrous scrap dealer buying prices.

Under the Toronto heading in prices listed for discontinuation, MB-PB-0112 Lead scrap undrained whole batteries, dealer buying price, delivered to yard US, US cents/lb, and MB-ZN-0122 Zinc scrap old zinc scrap, dealer buying price, delivered to yard US, US cents/lb, were both erroneously listed as prices to be removed. This has been corrected to exclude these markets from the proposed list as they are not being discontinued.

The updated pricing notice can be found here.

These prices form part of Fastmarkets’ scrap package.
