1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - The upstream zinc ore import volume has declined due to the continued deterioration of the internal - external price ratio, and the loss of importing zinc concentrates in China has widened. Domestic smelters have started winter raw material reserves and prefer to purchase domestic zinc concentrates. However, the competition among smelters for domestic ore has increased, processing fees at home and abroad have dropped significantly, and the profits of domestic smelters have shrunk, with expected output decline.

Recently, zinc prices have corrected, trading sentiment has improved, spot premiums have increased, and domestic inventories have decreased slightly. LME zinc inventories have rebounded, but the spot premium has remained at a historically high level. [3] - Technically, with increased trading volume, open interest, and rising prices, the bullish sentiment has heated up.
