Glencore reports lower metals production in 2024
The company produced 951,600 tonnes of copper in 2024, down 6% from 1.01 million tonnes in 2023.
Coal India, the world’s largest coal producer, is on a high. The state-run company is set to pick up a 15% stake in a joint venture with US-based coal firm Peabody Energy’s $600 million mining project in Australia.
The deal size could be upwards of $100 million. Officials privy to the discussion said both the companies were mulling over the exact details and were to form a joint venture company to tackle the Wilkie Creek coal mine, in Queensland, Australia, which is owned by Peabody.
