Video: Another wild ride for copper in 2025
MINING.COM's Frik Els says 2025 is already shaping up to be another wild ride for the red metal.
Pan Pacific Copper Co, Japan’s top smelter, said on Friday it and BHP had agreed to a 29 percent rise in copper treatment and refining fees for ores to be delivered in July-December, reflecting higher fees on the spot market.
Pan Pacific, a unit of JX Holdings Inc , agreed to $90 a tonne for treatment fees and 9 cents a pound for refining for the six months, a company executive said.
