SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts corrects MW zinc prices for Jan 15, Jan 29, Feb 12

Please note that due to a technical error, three North American zinc prices failed to update properly in the January 15, January 29 and February 12 editions of Platts Metals Week. The failure also caused a miscalculation in the weekly averages for those prices.

The January 15, January 29 and February 12 prices for MW North American SHG zinc (MMABD10) should have been 73.428 cents/lb, 79.778 cents/lb and 84.655 cents/lb, respectively. For the weeks of January 15, January 29 and February 12, the weekly averages for MW North American SHG zinc (MMABD01) should have been 73.301 cents/lb, 78.041 cents/lb and 84.474 cents/lb, respectively. The January 15, January 29 and February 12 prices for MW North American galvanized zinc (MMABI10) should have been 73.178 cents/lb, 79.528 cents/lb and 84.405 cents/lb, respectively. For the weeks of January 15, January 29 and February 12, the weekly averages for MW North American galvanized zinc (MMABI01) should have been 73.051 cents/lb, 77.791 cents/lb and 84.224 cents/lb, respectively.

The January 15, January 29 and February 12 prices for MW North American Alloy No. 3 zinc (MMABH10) should have been 84.428 cents/lb, 90.778 cents/lb and 95.405 cents/lb, respectively. For the weeks of January 15, January 29 and February 12, the weekly averages for MW North American Alloy No. 3 zinc (MMABH01) should have been 84.301 cents/lb, 89.041 cents/lb and 95.224 cents/lb, respectively.

These assessments appear in Metals Week and on Platts Metals Alert pages MW306 and MW684. Platts regrets the error.
