PRICING NOTICE: Correction to Fastmarkets’ ferro-nickel publication date

Fastmarkets MB has amended the date of publication of its monthly ferro-nickel cif China price to Monday December 31 instead of today after it was incorrectly published earlier due to a reporter error.

The assessment for cif China ferro-nickel premium with 26-32% nickel content is scheduled to be published every last Monday of each month.

The price, which was assessed at a discount of $250-120 per tonne at the end of November, will be published on December 31. 

Fastmarkets MB’s price book and database have been updated to reflect this correction.

To provide feedback on this price or if you would like to provide price information by becoming a data submitter, please contact Violet Li by email at:
