SHANGHAI, Mar. 25 (SMM) -- Guangchang Zhongfa Copper Industry Company in Jiangxi Province has started the construction of 2nd phase of project, so as to expand production scale. A total amount of 1,200 mt of copper semis has been sold out.
One senior official of the company said operating rates were running at full capacity since coming back from Chinese New Year holiday, with products reported supply shortages in the market, and production will have continued into the end of this year due to strong orders.
