A slump in copper production and shipping delays in Indonesia dragged Freeport-McMoRan Inc's second-quarter profit down by 60%.

According to the Energy Transitions Commission, it will require production of up to 6.5 billion tonnes of materials cumulatively between 2022 and 2050.

Scientists on Wednesday described how pieces of pure platinum and copper spontaneously healed cracks caused by metal fatigue.

The drilling was done in two phases on an underexplored area between the Springer and Cariboo mineralized zones near Williams Lake, BC.

The company lowered its full-year copper output forecast to 640,000-670,000 metric tons on persistent water shortages in Chile.

The firm produced 78.74 million metric tons of iron ore between April and June.

China's gross domestic product grew 0.8% in April-June from the previous quarter compared with a 2.2% expansion in Q1.
