Platts to revise CIF Japan ferrochrome specs

Platts is planning to revise the specifications of its 50-60% CIF Japan ferrochrome price due to changes in market trends.

We will be assessing 60-65% grades of CIF Japan ferrochrome to reflect the active spot trade of this material.

The change will take effect on March 1, 2010.
