I. Titanium Market Summary
Titanium Ore
Today the Panxi titanium ore price index stood at 1,235.00, flat from yesterday. Recently, new order shipments in the titanium ore market have been good. After the price reduction by large Panxi producers, the price gap with surrounding small producers has narrowed. Inventory is not high, but price support is insufficient, and the titanium ore market remains weakly stable. On the import side, titanium raw material import volumes remain high, miners' inventories are still under pressure, competition among enterprises is intense, and downstream price-suppression sentiment is strong. The imported titanium ore market remains weak.
Titanium Slag
In August, the tender price for 90% low-calcium-magnesium high-titanium slag at northern enterprises was 5,200 yuan/tonne, down 200 yuan/tonne from July. The high-titanium slag market is weak, with sluggish downstream demand and significant cost pressure. Market supply and demand are both weak, and prices remain weakly stable.
Titanium Tetrachloride
Titanium tetrachloride is quoted at 5,800-6,000 yuan/tonne. Liquid chlorine prices remain high, providing cost support for titanium tetrachloride. Downstream market operating rates are high, and enterprise quotes are overall stable. Titanium tetrachloride prices are running steadily.
