In sharp contrast to the soaring price of tungsten products, the market transactions are sluggish, especially in high-priced areas. Industry insiders pointed out that the upstream and downstream of the current tungsten industry chain are seriously disconnected: mining companies enjoy resource dividends, smelting and alloy companies are trapped by cost and demand pressures, and only a few technology pioneers are accelerating their breakthroughs in the new demand track. Faced with the soaring price of tungsten raw materials, although the industry's recognition of the value of key minerals and strategic resources is constantly increasing under the current international political and economic landscape, the pressure of inverted costs in the industry and the dilemma of having prices but no market are difficult to alleviate in the short term, and the few orders in the market are mainly small orders for rigid needs.
