Copper is an important non-ferrous metal used in various forms for different applications. Copper being a major industrial metal, ranks third after iron and aluminium in terms of quantity consumed. Copper is a reddish malleable and ductile metal valued for its excellent thermal and electrical conducting qualities and resistance to corrosion. Copper combines with a number of elements to form a wide variety of copper minerals and ores.

Copper ingots are generally required by the Non-ferrous casting units which are engaged in the casting of different engineering components of brass, gun metal, bronze etc., the agricultural machinery, automobile industries and railway components. These ingots are also required for manufacturing of rods, tubes, strips, wires etc. The copper ingots manufactured from copper scrap are generally known as commercial quality ingots & do not come under the group of electrolytic copper as these are secondary quality ingots.

Copper is one of the oldest metals ever used and has been one of the important materials in the development of civilization. Copper is an important non-ferrous base metal having wide industrial applications. Today it has become a major industrial metal, ranking 3rd after iron and aluminum in terms of quantities consumed.

Copper today is a 8 billion US dollar industry in India having created 50,000 direct and indirect jobs and growing at a CAGR 5-7% per annum. India has a huge growth potential in copper consumption for the next 20-25 years as the government increases focus on smart cities, rapid urbanization and investments in infrastructure.

Global demand for copper metal (produced from refined copper and recycled scrap) is projected to advance 4.2 percent per year through 2019 to 36.0 million metric tons, valued at $261 billion. Robust gains in building construction expenditures are expected to boost the use of copper wire, tube, and other mill products in applications such as building wire and plumbing. Increased infrastructure investment, particularly in developing countries, will further benefit copper suppliers as updates to national power grids drive the production of wire and cable. In addition, advances in global manufacturing output are expected to bolster the use of copper metal in transportation equipment, industrial machinery, domestic appliances, and other durable goods.

COPPER MARKET OUTLOOK:
KEY DEVELOPMENTS SINCE THE LAST ‘COPPER TO THE WORLCONFERENCE’
SHORTAGES STILL EXPECTED BUT SIZE OF DEFICITS REDUCED AND TRANSITION INTO DEFICIT DELAYED
CHINA’S ECONOMIC TRANSITION IS UNDERWAY BUT SOME GROWTH IS STILL EXPECTED
TOTAL CHINESE COPPER DEMAND BY END-USE (INCLUDING SCRAP), 2017 VS 2022, ‘000 TONNES
AS CHINESE GROWTH SLOWS, THE REST OF THE WORLD STARTS TO PICK-UP
GROWTH IN WORLD REFINED COPPER CONSUMPTION AND VOLUME GROWTH IN SELECTED 5-YEAR PERIODS
LONGER TERM, ELECTRIC VEHICLES WILL PROVIDE SIGNIFICANT BOOST TO COPPER DEMAND
GLOBAL DEMAND GROWTH HAS BEEN UPGRADED MAINLY ON EV STORY

…BUT SEVERAL SMALLER PROJECTS, MANY WITH CHINESE BACKING, HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE GREEN LIGHT
COPPER MINE PROJECTS 2017-2022 WITH CAPACITY OF >=50,000T/Y AND <100,000; LOM COPPER PRODUCTION CAPACITY; ’000T
PLENTY MORE INVESTMENT NEEDED: ALMOST ALL UNCOMMITTED PROJECTS ARE REQUIRED BY 2035
FORECAST COMMITTED COPPER MINE PRODUCTION AND POTENTIAL FROM UNCOMMITTED PROJECTS*
MOST POTENTIAL PRODUCTION IS LOCATED IN SOUTH AMERICA, ESPECIALLY CHILE…
MINE PROJECTS BY REGION AND STATUS AND WITH START-UP DATES OF BETWEEN NOW AND 2035
ROBUST MARGINS SHOULD ASSIST NEW PROJECT DEVELOPMENT
