Early publication of Asia ferro-silicon price assessments

Publication of Fastmarkets’ price assessments for three Asia ferro-silicon products on Wednesday October 23 was earlier than the time of 2pm UK stipulated in the methodology, due to a procedural lapse.

Fastmarkets’ pricing database has been updated.

The data submission window had already closed, and the data collection and price assessments were not affected by the early publication.

The following prices were published early:

MB-FES-0001 Ferro-silicon, 75% Si min, in-whs China, yuan per tonne

MB-FES-0004 Ferro-silicon, 75% Si min, export, fob China, $ per tonne

These prices are part of the Fastmarkets Metals package.
