In January, due to the New Year's holiday, most aggregates producing enterprises stopped production and construction sites were shut down, resulting in a decrease in overall aggregates production and demand. The prices of sand and gravel in many parts of the country have remained stable, with a slight increase in Shanghai and a decline in some areas of Gansu province. It is worth noting that the prices of sand in Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake along the Yangtze River have decreased by 10 yuan/ton.

In the eastern region of Chongqing, the price of gravel below 25mm rose by 2 yuan/ton, and the price of gravel (10-16mm) was around 39 yuan/ton.
