Scrap Lead Selling Prices Rise
According to The Financial Times, prices for lead rose in August after China put in place a ban on imports from neighbour North Korea, as part of international sanctions agreed to limit the country's weapon programme.
As a result, the price for lead on the London Metal Exchange rose by 1.4 percent to £1,400 a tonne.
Imports of lead into China from North Korea made up 10 per cent of the country’s overall lead imports in the first six months of this year.

Villagers rally round to protect historic church after lead thieves strike
Villagers rallied round after thieves stripped a large swathe of roofing lead from their local church.
Residents of Burrough on the Hill, between Melton and Oakham, acted quickly to cover the gaping hole in the roof of St Mary the Virgin before heavy rainfall.
An estimated 50m sq area of the roof was left unprotected following the theft, which is thought to have happened in the early hours ofSaturday.
