Today the highest bid was $82.17 and the lowest was $55 but the lowest rate accepted was $70 up from $64.20 last week.
A total of US$14.85 million was allotted against bids of US$20.32 million.
Some 290 bids were received but 51 were disqualified.
The highest allocation, US$7.4 million, went to raw materials and U$2.3 million went to machinery and equipment.
