Market for metal has a better tone
The Eastern Mining Journal notes a likely bottoming of metal prices with an upcoming rise. Lead steadies around 4 cents, Hecla and Morning operations continue, and the market is firmer due to reduced London volatility, lower Mexican production, and rising demand from builders and manufacturers. Zinc remains weak with galvanizers as the main buyers, while brass zinc and high grade pricing hold premiums.
