This year, the price of the reddish metal has risen sharply, with July being particularly turbulent as tariff fantasies drove up the price. In the long term, the outlook for the price of this industrial metal looks good. The energy transition, e-mobility, and the proliferation of data centers are all driving demand for copper. Rising defense spending will also increase the need for copper, especially in Europe and the US. Incidentally, copper is now also considered a critical metal according to the US Geological Survey (USGS). The number of critical metals listed in the US currently stands at 54.
"The draft 2025 list and methodology reflect the USGS s progress in forecasting potential disruptions to mineral supply chains, as required by the Energy Act of 2020," said USGS Acting Director Sarah Ryker. Copper is essential for modernizing national infrastructure, expanding new technologies, and manufacturing electronic devices and cables.
In any case, more copper is needed than is currently being produced. In August, the settlement price on the London Metal Exchange was a good $9,622 per ton. Copper companies point to deteriorating ore quality and rising operating costs.
Chile is the most important copper-producing country. Copper production there is expected to stagnate. The copper price is currently struggling to break through the $10,000 mark. It should only be a matter of time before the true value of the reddish metal is reflected in the price, which will also benefit companies with copper in the ground.
Arizona Sonoran Copper Company - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/arizona-sonoran-copper-company-inc/ - is one of the copper companies that should benefit from this development. The company owns the Cactus project in Arizona, which has received a very good economic assessment.
