From H2 2025 to early 2026, the copper industry underwent profound structural shifts. China's smelting capacity continued to be released, reliance on imported raw materials deepened, and the supply of copper concentrates remained persistently tight. Driven by monetary policy changes, geopolitical conflicts, production cuts at mines outside China, and accelerated industry consolidation, copper prices repeatedly hit new highs. The industry shifted from a tight balance to a structural deficit, further strengthening copper's role as a strategic resource.
Hereby, SMM joins hands with Qixian Hongda Refractory Co., Ltd. to cordially invite enterprises across copper mining, copper smelting, and related third-party equipment and consumables sectors to co-produce the . This initiative aims to gather high-quality industry resources and create an authoritative industry platform, helping enterprises enhance their industry influence and jointly promoting quality-driven industry development.
