According to the latest report, Japanese aluminium buyers have agreed to pay an 8 per cent lower premium for primary aluminium shipments for Q3 2024, ending September 30, than the previous quarter. The news came after five sources directly involved in quarterly pricing talks reported.

The last offer by global producers for Q3 was $185 to $190 per tonne, compared to which the current premium is 36-37 per cent lower, standing at $118 to $119 per tonne.
