During the first half of July, the Chinese manganese market continued to witness a downward movement in its prices
. Despite tight spot supply in South China, prices from North China based plants hovered at a low level, thus helping drive down manganese flake prices in China. In mid-July, manganese flake prices in China remained stable temporarily at RMB10,000-10,100/t (USD1,501-1,516/t) D/P ex works and a few transactions were concluded at below RMB10,000/t (USD1,501/t) D/P ex works . Insiders held that prices for manganese flake had already hit the bottom line and some traders began to restock the material . In late July, plants from South China began to raise their prices; though prices rose quite slowly at first, they began to move up more notably as North China based plants followed suit in late July . It was expected that manganese flake prices will continue to rebound in the first ten days of August.
