Missing data point for fluorspar prices

Fastmarkets has observed a missing data set in its fluorspar fob China pricing history. Price data for three fluorspar, FOB China assessments for February 8, 2024, were missing due to a reporter error.

The following prices were affected:
MB-FLU-0003 Fluorspar, acidspar, 97% CaF2, wet filter cake, fob China, $/tonne 
MB-FLU-0015 Fluorspar, metspar, min 85% CaF2, fob China, $/tonne 
MB-FLU-0016 Fluorspar, metspar, min 90% CaF2, fob China, $/tonne 

Due to the delayed nature of the issue, these prices will not be backfilled.

These prices are a part of the Fastmarkets industrial minerals price package.
