Titanium Product Market Quotes, November 12

1. Market Brief

Titanium ore. Today the Panxi titanium ore price index stood at 1,052.50, flat day on day. The ore market is well supplied; after major Panxi producers cut prices this month, competition among small and medium mills to ship goods intensified again, the transaction center moved lower, and with downstream TiO2 prices expected to weaken, the ore market remains under pressure and stays weak. Imported ore is dragged by high port inventories and continued arrivals of overseas cargoes; spot circulation is sluggish, downstream buying enthusiasm is low, and prices run under pressure.

Titanium slag. This month, northern producers' tender for 90% low-Ca/Mg high-titanium slag settled at CNY 4,990 per tonne, down CNY 210 from the previous tender. After the new round of slag tender prices landed, slag plants remain under persistent profit pressure, mostly running at low load; continued diversion of demand by imported titanium-rich materials and to-order, inventory-controlled downstream buying keep the market weak. Acid slag, dragged by weak TiO2 demand, lacks rigid-demand support; rising hydropower-season power tariffs in the southwest add cost pressure, so prices consolidate low and transactions are thin.

Titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4). Market quotes are CNY 5,600–6,000 per tonne. Feedstock liquid chlorine prices fluctuate, production is stable, and prices hold steady.

Sponge titanium. Sponge titanium prices are low and stable. Grade 0 sponge titanium is mainly quoted around CNY 41,000–43,000 per tonne, and grade 1 civilian-grade sponge titanium around CNY 40,000–42,000 per tonne. Downstream demand remains weak; sponge titanium producers run at high utilization, new shipments are under pressure, competition stays fierce, and the market remains weak and stable.

TiO2 pigment (titanium dioxide). Today the TiO2 price index stood at 13,733.15, flat day on day. TiO2 transactions remain weak; some producers cut prices, demand is sluggish and new-order shipment pressure is high. As firms roll out new-round prices one after another, the market will gradually become clearer.
