Scandium metal prices
Most scandium products sold on international markets are scandium metal scandium or scandium dioxide. Price is determined by the level of purity. 2017 saw the cost of 99.99% pure scanningdium oxide at $4,600/kg. However, the price for distilled scandium metal was $526,000/kg. This is five times more than the gold price ($44,445/kg). Scandium prices have fluctuated dramatically and declined from 1990 through 2006. Let’s take the example of the distilled metallic scandium. Scandium’s price was high in 1993 at $372,000/kg. In 2005, however, it dropped to $162,500/kg. The prices of scandium have increased since 2006. In the rare Earth family, it is much more expensive that other light-rare earths. It also costs more than rare heavy metals like terbium, dysprosium, and terbium. When rare earths prices rose, for instance, scandium oxide (91%) in China cost 26,000 Yuan/kg. This was twice as much as europium oxide (12,000. Yuan/kg) or terbiumoxid (12,000 U.S./kg), both of which had the highest average prices that year. Buffalotours (aka. Buffalotours advanced materials.
