London - The price of zinc hit a record high above $4 000/tonne on Tuesday owing to fierce Chinese demand and plunging global stockpiles. On the London Metal Exchange, three-month zinc prices reached an all-time pinnacle of $4 020/tonne - the highest level since the metal was first listed in 1915. Zinc is used to galvanise iron and steel. The base metals complex is currently enjoyed a record-breaking run thanks largely to weak stocks, production problems and soaring demand from China, whose economic expansion has continued at a blistering pace, analysts say. On Monday, nickel had touched an all-time peak of $31 950/tonne and lead rose to a record high $1 550/tonne. Tin prices meanwhile had hit $11 000/tonne --the best level since 1989 when the metal was re-introduced on the London market.
