China's Mar 11-20 aluminum price rises 1% from March 1-10: NBS
China's domestic primary aluminum price averaged Yuan 11,306.2/mt ($1,742/mt) over March 11-20, up 1.1% from Yuan 11,183.5/mt over March 1-10, the National Bureau of Statistics said Thursday.

NBS conducts a survey on domestic prices, covering nine categories of essential feedstocks, three times a month.

Aluminum falls under the category of nonferrous metals. This category also includes the prices of copper, lead and zinc ingot.

The average price of copper was Yuan 37,387.5/mt over March 11-20, up 1.7% from the previous period; lead was down 0.8% at Yuan 13,600.8/mt; and zinc was 0.7% lower at Yuan 14,033.7/mt.

The other eight categories are ferrous metals, petrochemicals, oil and natural gas, coal, non-metal construction materials, agricultural products, agricultural feedstocks and forestry products.

The data is gathered from 24 major provinces and cities: Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, Liaoning, Jilin, Heilongjiang, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Fujian, Jiangxi, Shandong, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Sichuan, Shaanxi, Gansu and Xinjiang.
