On August 18, 2025, Asian Metal reported that the average quoted price of PrNd Oxide climbed to 569,500 yuan per ton, advancing by 16,000 yuan per ton from the prior trading day, while the average quoted price of PrNd mischmetal surged to 696,500 yuan per ton, up by 20,000 yuan per ton over the same period. The PrNd sector sustained its positive momentum, fueled by sharp morning spikes in futures values, mirrored gains in spot trading, escalating sourcing costs, sturdy input reinforcement, and aligned elevations in metal offers. With the week kicking off, magnet firms downstream largely adopted a prudent stance, though tangible deals are still unfolding.
The Dy and Tb arenas witnessed constriction in budget offerings, alongside a modest uptick in probing, upward drifts in oxide quotes, and corresponding hikes from metal facilities.
