Eastern China’s largest private ferrous scrap consumer and EAF steelmaker - Shagang Jiangsu Steel group has announced another price cut for all grades of domestic steel scrap procurement by RMB 50/MT (USD 7) effective from 30 Aug'19. Notably, this is steel mills' 2nd price cut in a week's time. Prior to this, the company had cut prices by RMB 60 two days back. Falling billet & steel prices resulted in lowering of scrap purchase prices.
