BASE METALS HIGHLIGHTS: Top Stories Of The Day10 days ago
SYDNEY (Dow Jones)--Tightness in the copper concentrate market will likely push down 2010 annual smelting fees by about 40% from this year, squeezing smelters' profit margins and indicating ongoing problems with mine supply, traders and analysts said Tuesday.
The National Copper Corporation of Chile, or Codelco, raised its term premium for copper to the Japanese port of Yokohama to $75 a ton in 2010, and to $74 for South Korean buyers, Reuters news agency reported on its Web site Monday, citing unnamed industry sources.
PERTH (Dow Jones)--Rio Tinto Plc (RTP) Chief Executive Tom Albanese said Tuesday the company has had recent contact with China's Chinalco over cooperating on new projects.
PERTH (Dow Jones)--Nippon Steel (NISTY) Chairman Akio Mimura on Tuesday warned that the creation of resources "oligopolies" was a threat to the continued growth of trade between Australia and Japan.
NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Miners and mining-equipment makers climbed steadily Monday because commodity prices rose in response to a falling dollar as investors looked for ways to hedge against the currency.
LIMA (Dow Jones)--Unions at Peru's Antamina polymetallic mine plan to discuss the latest contract proposal from Antamina during meetings Monday and Tuesday, with strike action a possibility.
NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Copper futures settled higher Monday as the U.S. dollar weakened and oil prices rose amid a general boost in investor risk appetite.
LONDON (Dow Jones)--Base Metals on the London Metal Exchange continued to rise in lackluster European trading Monday as a weaker dollar against most currencies provided support despite lack of conviction from investors about where prices should head next.
