Many vanadium-nitrogen plants are in urgent need of purchasing spot goods for replenishment, or they will face heat preservation and shutdown in the later stage. The market of ferrovanadium is quiet and the factory’s operating rate is low, the quoted price of bulk goods is 104,000-106,000 Yuan / ton in cash. Some of the manufacturers with stocks say that it is difficult to find cars to delivery goods, and the logistics is still greatly affected by the coronavirus epidemic.
