To 2.695 million yuan/ton, the price of dysprosium ferroalloy was 2.64 million yuan/ton, and the price of dysprosium metal rose by 5000 yuan/ton to 3.445 million yuan/ton. The price of some domestic light rare earths market rose, and the recent purchases are general, and the price of praseodymium-neodymium series is stable. Mainly, the price of dysprosium in the domestic heavy rare earth market has risen recently, the price of terbium has risen, downstream procurement is not active, and Myanmar is banned from export. It is expected that the domestic rare earth market price will stabilize in the later period.
