Vale declares force majeure at Sudbry and nickel breaches 20,000 dollars per tonne

摘要

Vale Inco declared force majeure at its Sudbury and Voisey's Bay nickel and cobalt operations last week due to the three-weekstrike there, traders told MB. "This happened last Friday [July 31], although it wasn't common knowledge. They went out to their major customers and told them they'd declared force majeure," a trader said. Workers at the Sudbury mine have been on strike since July 13 after rejecting the company's contract offer.
