·Copper containing rock or copper ore holds only a small percentage of copper Most of the rock is unwanted material typically referred to as are two main types of copper ore that
Our copper ore is leached to produce copper cathodes via processing in SX EW plants Copper cathode production is trucked from the operations to our warehouses where it is prepared for shipment to purchasers Concentrate production is a process where the main metallic compounds of the mine s ore are separated and concentrated This
China Import Copper Ore & Concentrate data was reported at USD bn in Sep 2024 This records a decrease from the previous number of USD bn for Aug 2024 China Import Copper Ore & Concentrate data is updated monthly averaging USD mn Median from Jan 1993 to Sep 2024 with 381 observations The data reached an all time high of USD
The tightness in the copper concentrate market is anticipated to persist in the first half of the year at least putting the pressure on smelters Though there is an expectation of recovery in global mine supply in the second half of 2021 and with that also an increase in spot Treatment Charges supply disruptions are still possible
·Converting copper ore into concentrate mitigates some of these issues by reducing the volume of material that must be transported and smelted thereby lowering transportation costs and the environmental footprint However the concentrate itself can pose environmental risks if not handled properly such as the potential toxicity to aquatic
