A producer from North China claimed that their company quotes RMB172,000/t (USD12.51/lb V) EXW D/P for ammonium metavanadate 98%min at the moment. He said, “Early this week, we received enquiries from consumers who intended to purchase 10t of ammonium metavanadate at just RMB168,000/t (USD12.22/lb V) EXW D/P which was obviously lower than our bottom price line. After negotiations for many times, we concluded the deal at RMB170,000/t (USD12.36/lb V) EXW D/P finally.” The source expected that prices for Chinese ammonium metavanadate would keep stable weakly in the coming week.
