Forecast Coverage for Molybdenum

Molybdenum is principally used as an alloying agent in steel. As a by-product of copper, production costs are low. Prices can be influenced by demand for nickel and stainless steel, as well as molybdenum roasting capacity. Our molybdenum forecasts are based on spot prices for molybdenum from drummed molybdic oxide (57-63% molybdenum).
