There was a transaction concluded at $516 per tonne cfr Vietnam for a 27,500-tonne HMS 1&2 (80:20) cargo from Australia by a steel mill in southern Vietnam, and a transaction concluded at $520 per tonne cfr Vietnam for a HMS 1&2 (80:20) cargo from the United States' West Coast by a second southern Vietnamese steel mill.
Both cargoes were sold by the same scrapyard.
