The analyst's "US Copper Mining to 2030" provides a comprehensive coverage on the US copper mining industry. It provides historical and forecast data on US production, reserves by country, and world copper prices. The report also includes a demand drivers section providing information on factors that are affecting the country’s copper industry such as demand from end use sectors. It further profiles major copper producers, information on the major active, planned and exploration projects.
Following an 8.3% decline in 2023, US copper supply is expected to increase by 4.0% in 2024 to 1.17 million tonnes (kt). This growth will be primarily supported by expected increase in production from the Robinson mine as mining moved to a more copper-rich zone. Furthermore, in the first quarter of 2024, the Robinson mine produced 14.3kt of copper, up from 7.6kt in the same period of 2023. This increase is mainly due to higher recovery rates, greater copper content in the ore, and increased ore extraction.
Looking ahead, the country’s copper output is expected to grow by a forecast period (2025-30) CAGR of 7.2% reach 1,714.5kt in 2030, supported by the start of several projects including the Arctic and Copper Flat (2027), White Pine North and Zonia (2028), Cumo, Copper Creek and Van Dyke projects (2029).
