Western miners push for higher metals prices to ward off Chinese rivals
Industry leaders have pushed for two pricing structures for several years.
Chile’s Codelco, the world’s largest copper miner, saw output in September fall off by 16% year-on-year to 133,800 tonnes, Chilean state copper commission Cochilco said on Wednesday.
BHP’s Escondida, the world’s largest copper mine, saw production drop 12.2% year-on-year to 82,600 tonnes in the same month.
