The latest global Copper Fact Book is now out and apart from being free has everything you need to know about the world’s hardest working and smartest metal.

Produced by the International Copper Study Group—ICSG—in Portugal, the newest edition covers the red metal from every angle.

From Copper basics like its history, benefits & properties to supply, pricing, trade, production, geographical supply trends, world demand and its myriad uses in the contemporary world—including construction, technology, electrification, machinery, electronics, mobility, clean energy and heating & cooling, to name a few.

Copper is now the go to metal for the world’s most pressing issue: decarbonisation. The Fact Book outlines how copper is playing its part to achieve this challenging goal, including the way mining companies are embracing sustainability, but also copper’s importance to the Circular Economy and especially recycling.
