• Resumen

  • luka will raise the prices for its zircon and rutile products amid strong demand, weakened supply and what it says is a “trend toward high-grade feedstocks and chloride feedstocks across the board.” Australia-based Iluka Resources will raise its zircon price from April 1 after having already raised its rutile price for the first half of this year, it has said, citing robust market conditions.

    The minerals sands mining and exploration company will raise its zircon reference price to $1,410 per tonne from April 1 for the following six months. The previous price was $1,230 per tonne, current since October 1 last year.
