China’s imports of copper ore and concentrate rose 16.7% from a year ago to stand at 7.24 million mt for the first four months of 2019, according to data.
The world’s top copper miner posted the lowest production in more than a decade during the first quarter after heavy rains hit its operations and output declined.
