New transparency reflects properties of Chinese cobalt exports

中国钴出口的透明度反映了其性质

LONDON, Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Global commodity price reporting agency Argus is expanding its suite of cobalt prices with the launch of a new daily Rotterdam assessment for Chinese-origin cut cathode. The launch will bring much-needed clarity to the cobalt market at a time when there has been an influx of Chinese material to Europe

伦敦,2024年10月1日/ PRNewswire / - 全球商品价格报告机构雅运股份正在扩大其钴价格套件,推出了一项新的每日鹿特丹指数,专门针对中国来源的切片阴极。该推出将为钴市场带来迫切需要的清晰度,因为中国物料涌入欧洲之时。

China's exports of unwrought cobalt metal to the Netherlands jumped to 5,478t in January-August from 1,989t a year earlier, both because of over-production and as a result of weaker-than-expected demand from China's domestic battery industry. Europe has borne the brunt of China's increased cobalt exports because US consumers are often unwilling to use Chinese cobalt within their supply chains.

中国对荷兰的未锻造钴金属出口在1-8月份跃升至5478万亿,而去年同期为1989万亿。这既因为过量生产,也是因为中国国内电池行业需求低于预期。欧洲承受了中国增加的钴出口压力,因为美国消费者通常不愿在其供应链中使用中国钴。

The flood of Chinese-origin cobalt moving to Europe has become problematic for existing Rotterdam price mechanisms, which have failed to sufficiently distinguish between standard chemical-grade metal, alloy-grade metal and Chinese-origin cut cathode. Conflating Chinese cut cathode with either of the other products can be problematic, because the material is typically much cheaper than other cathode, and more prone to variations in grade.

大量中国原产地的钴流向欧洲已对现有的鹿特丹价格机制构成问题,这些机制未能充分区分标准化的化学级金属、合金级金属和中国切片阴极。将中国切片阴极与其他产品混淆可能会带来问题,因为这种材料通常比其他阴极便宜得多,更容易出现品级变化。

Moreover, inside China, cobalt hydroxide — an important battery material — is typically priced using formulae themselves tied to European cobalt metal prices. Lack of clarity about European prices could compromise the basis on which hydroxide trades — a market that stretches far beyond Europe.

此外,在中国内部,氢氧化钴 - 一种重要的电池材料 - 通常使用与欧洲钴金属价格挂钩的公式定价。欧洲价格缺乏明确性可能会影响氢氧化物交易的基础 - 这是一个远非欧洲的市场。

Argus Media chairman and chief executive Adrian Binks said: "Our new assessments of Chinese-origin cut cathode delivered into Europe provide vital market transparency. Chinese cut cathode has consistently been trading at a discount to standard alloy-grade and chemical-grade cobalt metal in Europe – including it in an existing Rotterdam price mechanism runs the risk of reducing the precision of published prices. Creating this additional price adds some much-needed clarity."

雅运股份主席兼首席执行官艾德里安·宾克斯说:“我们对运抵欧洲的中国切片阴极的新评估提供了重要的市场透明度。中国的切片阴极一直以来都以低于欧洲标准合金级和化学级钴金属的价格进行交易 - 将其纳入现有的鹿特丹价格机制可能会降低公布价格的精度。创建这项额外的价格提供了急需的清晰性。”

The new European price assessment for min 99.8% Chinese-origin cut cathode will be assessed daily on a duty unpaid Rotterdam basis for 1t +/- 2% lots. It rounds out Argus' existing suite of cobalt prices, which span the full value chain across China, Europe and the US.

新的欧洲价格评估将每日评估99.8%及以上纯度的中国原产切割阳极铜价,以荷兰鲁特舍特未征税的基础,每1万吨+/- 2%。这一补充了雅运股份现有的钴价套装,涵盖了中国、欧洲和美国的完整价值链。
