On October 17, 2025, Asian Metal reported that the average quoted price of PrNd Oxide stood at 507,500 yuan per ton, declining by 8,000 yuan per ton from the prior trading day, while the average quoted price of PrNd mischmetal settled at 622,500 yuan per ton, down by 5,000 yuan per ton over the same period. The PrNd market extended its downward slide, marked by upstream oxide value hubs drifting lower, shaky market dynamics, corresponding retreats in metal proposals, major magnet fabricators engaging in routine sourcing probes, smaller enterprises grappling with order impacts, sharp feedstock drops, and a pronounced cautious stance in acquisitions.
The Dy and Tb sectors persisted in a tepid deadlock, hampered by restrained exploration fervor, offerings listed but finding no traction in the market.
