BASE METALS HIGHLIGHTS: Top Stories Of The Day

265 days ago
BEIJING (Dow Jones)--The global nickel industry will face further production cutbacks in the short term, as well as project deferrals, with limited scope for sustained price rises while stocks overhang persists, said John Barkas, director of Metalytics Pty Ltd., in an industry conference Wednesday.

SYDNEY (Dow Jones)--Xstrata PLC (XTA.LN) said Wednesday it has temporarily closed its George Fisher zinc mine in Mount Isa in Queensland, Australia following the death of an employee late Tuesday.

LIMA (Dow Jones)--Peru's National Society of Mining, Petroleum and Energy said Tuesday that Doe Run Peru hadn't lived up to promises made when the company received a recent private-sector financing deal.

SYDNEY (Dow Jones)--Pan Pacific Copper Co. Ltd., Japan's largest copper smelter, Tuesday said exports to China have been strong since the start of the year, and it may export as much of half of its annual output during the current financial year.

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Copper futures erased gains to end quiet trading essentially flat Tuesday after unexpectedly weak housing starts numbers put a damper on the metal's advance.

LONDON (Dow Jones)--Base metals on the London Metal Exchange retreated from session highs Tuesday after U.S. housing data unexpectedly fell in April.
