COPPER
Copper production in Peru rose 2.5% year-on-year in September, the Andean country's energy and mines ministry said on Friday, as the world's second-largest copper producing nationhit a monthly output of 235 178 metric tons.
The increase was driven by higher output from the Quellaveco mine, controlled by Anglo American, which came online last year, and the Las Bambas mine controlled by Chinese firm MMG, the ministry statement said.
