In the first two quarters of 2023, the prices of tungsten fluctuated but remained on the lower end of the spectrum as the performance of end-user industries faced severe volatility. During this phase, the rates of exports from China declined, which caused disruptions in the supply chains. The semiconductor industries also suffered from this restricted supply.

However, on the other hand, Group 6 Metals initiated the functioning of new tungsten mines in Australia which increased the production rates while the trading activities moved southwards.
