As of July 12, 2026, this reviewed global Gilsonite and natural asphaltite price page shows FOB/FCA planning indications from USD 300–1,450/MT across verified export hubs in Iran, the United States, Albania, Trinidad and Tobago, Türkiye and Colombia. Buyers can compare origin, product form, grade, ash or particle-size specification, packaging and trade basis below. Final quotation depends on quantity, destination, inspection, documents, payment terms and shipment timing, so RFQ confirmation is required before purchase.

Methodology and Commercial Scope
Basis
All rows use FOB for sea-port export gateways or FCA for mines, plants and land corridors. CFR, CIF, DAP and DDP are excluded so the hub comparison is not distorted by destination freight.
Hub and price method
A hub is included only when a producing source or established export gateway can be matched with current product evidence and recent trade activity. Customs unit values are directional anchors and are normalized for product form, processing and packaging; they are not live executable quotations.
RFQ
A firm quote requires product type, target ash or specification, mesh or particle size, quantity, packaging, destination port or border, inspection requirements, shipment window and required documents.

- Prices are July 12, 2026 FOB/FCA planning indications for B2B comparison and are not binding offers.
- The latest broadly comparable complete trade dataset is 2024 HS 271490. This code covers natural bitumen, natural asphalt, asphaltites and asphaltic rock, so customs unit values are used only as directional market anchors.
- Re-export centers and countries dominated by broader natural-bitumen or asphaltic-rock flows are excluded from the map unless current product-specific outbound evidence supports a Gilsonite or comparable natural-asphaltite hub.
- Iran origin-cluster FCA, land-corridor FCA and Bandar Imam Khomeini or Bandar Abbas FOB rows are separated because inland freight, handling, bagging, customs workflow, booking availability and route conditions materially affect price.
- Low ash, high solubility, tight particle-size control, drilling-grade consistency, small bags, palletization, inspection, COA, MSDS, COO and legalized documents may add cost.
- Confirm ash, moisture, volatile matter, fixed carbon, softening point, solubility, particle size and application performance against the final COA/TDS before shipment.
Gilsonite Price FAQ
Are these Gilsonite prices binding offers?
No. They are normalized FOB/FCA planning indications. A binding offer requires an RFQ with quantity, specification, packaging, destination, payment term, inspection and shipment details.
How are export hubs selected?
A country is included only when a current producing source or established export gateway can be matched with product evidence and meaningful recent trade activity. HS 271490 volume alone is not sufficient because the code also includes broader natural-bitumen and asphaltic-rock materials.
Why can prices differ widely by hub?
Origin, ash, solubility, softening point, particle size, processing, bag size, palletization, inland logistics, port or border handling, documentation and order volume all affect the final price.
What information is needed for an accurate RFQ?
Provide the intended application, product form, target specification or ash, mesh or particle size, quantity, packaging, destination port or border, shipment window, inspection needs and required documents.
