MINAS DE ALMADEN RAISES MERCURY PRICE Spain's Minas de Almaden y Arrayanes S.A. has agreed with Algerian producer ENOF to establish a minimum price of 300 dlrs per flask for spot mercury sales, Almaden spokesman Jesus Gallego said. In response to enquiries from Reuters, he said his company had raised the minimum price for its spot sales from 240 dlrs per flask following talks with ENOF. In a separate press release, the company said that ENOF and Almaden held talks in Istanbul a week ago with Turkish mercury producers on ways to improve prices, but Gallego said he was not in a position to say what action the Turkish companies would be taking.
