According to the data of business club’s block list, the price trend of domestic cryolite market is stable. The average price of cryolite market in Henan is 5800 yuan / ton, down 2.79% compared with last year. At present, the ex factory price of cryolite in Henan Province is 5000-6200 yuan / ton, and that in Shandong Province is 5500-6800 yuan / ton. The factory’s equipment starts normally, the inventory is sufficient, the downstream demand is general, and most of them are purchased on demand. The enterprise has a wait-and-see mentality, and the quotation is stable.

On the upstream side, the price trend of fluorite increased, and the average price of domestic market was 2718.89 yuan / ton. The domestic fluorite manufacturers were stable, the supply of goods was slightly tight, and the price trend rose. In the later stage, the price of fluorite may continue to rise. As for the downstream aluminum industry, the social inventory continues to move downward, and the supply and demand factors support the fluctuation of aluminum price upward. Towards the end of the year, the industry’s foreign investment gold plate gradually withdraws, and the downstream consumption may be weakened. It is expected that the aluminum industry will shake up later.

According to the cryolite product analysts of the business society, at present, the cryolite manufacturers are operating normally with sufficient supply in the field, and the downstream demand is general. The enterprises sell more by order, and the cryolite market support is insufficient. It is expected that the cryolite market will continue to be weak and stable in the later period, and the specific attention will be paid to the market demand.
