Fastmarkets' price assessment for cobalt alloy grade, in-whs Rotterdam stood at $16-16.50 per lb on Thursday April 9, unchanged from the previous day and down from $16.20-16.65 per lb at the end of last week.
The price assessment for cobalt standard grade, in-whs Rotterdam performed similarly, holding at $15.60-16.15 per lb on Thursday, unchanged from April 8 and down from $15.85-16.40 per lb on April 3.
