Global Chrome Ore Market Scenario
Due to insufficient stocks and relatively strong demand in the Chinese market, prices for South African chrome ore concentrate 40-42% moved up to USD 350-360/MT CIF China. South Africa accounts to about 65% of the global chrome ore trade.
SteelMint assessed that spot prices for chrome ore at ports will continue to rise as spot material at ports was rather limited.
