A steel mill in the Iskenderun region booked a Baltic Sea cargo, comprising 16,500 tonnes of HMS 1&2 (80:20) at $285 per tonne, 5,000 tonnes of shredded at $290 per tonne and 1,500 tonnes of bonus at $295 per tonne cfr.
This compared with the previous Baltic Sea cargo sold on Thursday at $283 per tonne cfr for HMS 1&2 (80:20).
As a result, the daily scrap indices remained strong at the end of the week.
