Analysis review
In terms of raw materials, the high price of titanium concentrate had put pressure on the cost of high titanium slag enterprises. In addition, with the increase in electricity prices in Liaoning region, most production enterprises had suffered losses, and the market price of high titanium slag was under pressure to rise.
