@JP8891: Although very difficult to trace Vanchem exports Ammonium Metavandate as well as FeV and other chemicals.

No problem jimbo, and 2nd of May delivery was 75.4T.

@jimbo66: Another vessel alongside at present maybe news in a day or so.

18000Kg of Vanchem V2O5 dropped off in California and just under 115,000Kg of Nitrovan to Baltimore in just two days.

GLA, Pal

With over 172 mT of Nitrovan landed in Baltimore over the past fortnight one would have expected a more robust SP.

All very strange indeed. Nitrovan deliveries to USA in April 2023 were the second highest April in the past 6 years of my records and at a pretty reasonable price too.

Good to see Vanchem still dropping off V2O5 to Montreal.

@Lindon: The averages are down a little principally, I think due to port delays. April and May schedules appear to be much healthier than we have seen for a while so looking forward to seeing the graph reflect this.

@Pdub and all: The delivered quantities are correct the shipping cost quoted are parody and I am sorry for those who thought otherwise. To answer Lindon my post states that the price of Nitrovan is taken from posts on this site. I gave up discussing prices because of the disparity between different websites.
Tuck the Trolls, ATB Pal.

The monthly average deliveries of Nitrovan to the USA for 2023 currenly stands at 133,434 Kg.
I generally refrain from costings but from postings on this site that would make the value to be in the region of $5.8 million per month, just to the US.
I pay particular attention to those members who many green box so I do appreciate that the $4 to $5 million per month transport costs bite deeply into profits and may one day worry about that.
In my opinion though things can only get better. ATB Pal.

Ideal pricing for Vanadium across the required options. Continued deliveries to the US and now confirmation that Bushveld Electrolyte is on a preferred supplier list.

The sun is shining here. ATB Pal.

According to BMN Nitrovan averages 77 to 78% Vanadium

http://www.nitrovan.co.za/

For years now they have never liked more than 5% increases per day.

@Jimbo66: Unfortunately these three containers were originally reported as delivered on the 8th of January. Records show however that the containers were not offloaded then but transhipped in Freeport, Bahamas on the 10th of February arriving as you stated on the 23rd.

February figure is of course correct but January's is reduced by 56670Kg.

I am not sure why the containers are treated this way but it could be the logistics of their stowage on board the original vessel, in this case the MV Maersk Vallvik.

@alleycat: Hope the weather is improving now Andrew.

From US Vanadium's website, Sept 2021. USV produces vanadium-based products by recovering contained vanadium from a variety of post-industrial waste streams, which underscores USV’s commitment to maximizing sustainable practices in its operations. USV’s recycling of waste streams also allows for the production of high-purity vanadium products with a very small carbon footprint as compared to primary vanadium mining operations. The initial purchase agreement between US Vanadium and CellCube for 580,000 liters /year of US Vanadium electrolyte. Now can produce over 4 Million Ltr per year. that is an impressive expansion.

@Lindon: Sorry no, only that the supplier was Enerox Gmbh of 3 IZ NOE-SUED STRASSE WIENER NEUDORAT and Receiver Cellcube of 1776 S.JACKSON ST. SITE 603 DENVER 80210-3801 CO 80210 US. It was picked up in Wiener Neudorf and shipped from Rotterdam to Los Angeles. There was an earlier consignment in mid January but the restictions of the site prevent me from seeing the complete BoL, the minimum was 3 containers though.

On 28th January 5 containers of Electrolyte from Enerox Gmbh arrived in Los Angeles for Cellcube, 65,800Kg.

@pb940: In 2022 we sent 101 containers to the US alone.
