Is molybdenum traded on the LME in 6 tonnes or 10 tonnes?
Molybdenum is traded in 6 tonne lots. It is priced in dollars per tonne, molybdenum contained. The delivery size is 10 tonnes of roasted molybdenum concentrates (RMC) delivered in drums. Of each drum delivered and stored in warehouse, only around 60 percent of the drum, or 6 tonnes, has any commercial value, which is the molybdenum contained in the RMC.
