As of March 1, the average spot price of second grade met coke in China stood at $302/mt, unchanged week on week. Local coke prices in China can be viewed in the SteelOrbis price reports section.
Influenced by coking plants' reduction of their ex-works prices in the previous week, some deals have been concluded at negotiated prices. Given the current difficulty of domestic coking plants in making a profit, market players expect that coke prices in the Chinese market will likely continue to trend sideways in the short term.
