Antimony falls, reverses price trend while epidemic worsens in Europe

摘要

If the limited availability of material from China supported prices in January and February, the price driver has shifted to the decrease in demand in Europe, with the continent now labelled the epicenter of the epidemic, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
