The general range in Turkey’s ship scrap market is still at $390-425/mt for delivery to mill by truck. Two more Izmir-based mills have increased their prices by $10/mt and revised their purchase prices to $425/mt. The increasing trend in Turkey’s ship scrap market is the result of the sharp rises recorded in the deep sea and short sea scrap segments.
