THE INTERNATIONAL COPPER STUDY GROUP

Introduction

The International Copper Study Group (ICSG) was

formally established as an autonomous intergovern-

mental organisation on January 23, 1992, following a

series of Ad Hoc meetings sponsored by the United

Nations (UNCTAD) in 1986 and 1987 to review the

world situation of copper and discuss the need for

such a body. A negotiating conference was convened

in June 1988 and, by February 1989, the terms of ref-

erence were finalised. The inaugural meeting was

held in June 1992, and in November 1992, the

Group’s headquarters site was selected to be Lisbon,

Portugal.

Objectives and Functions

The mandate of the Study Group provides for en-

hanced co-operation on issues related to copper and a

forum in which governmental consultations on copper

can be held. The Study Group is to provide a forum

for all market participants, both producers and con-

sumers, to examine their common problems and carry

out open dialogue and free exchange of information.

Greater market transparency is an important goal of

the Group through more complete reliable and up-to-

date statistics, as well as through special investiga-

tions and studies. Greater transparency in the market

should aid companies in choosing correct market

strategies. A better balance between supply and de-

mand is thus more likely.

The principal functions of the Group are to conduct

consultations and exchanges of information on the

international copper economy; to improve statistics on

copper; to undertake studies on issues of the Group;

and to consider special problems or difficulties that

exist or may arise, in the international copper econ-

omy. The Group shall hold discussions among mem-

bers and third parties, such as copper research and

market development organisations, on ways and

means of increasing the demand and developing the

market of copper, and within this framework, suggest

market development studies that would be directed to,

and undertaken by, established market development

organisations. The Group shall offer to facilitate co-

ordination between these organisations and support

the extension of market development activities

The Study Group will endeavour to provide its mem-

bership with the most accurate, comprehensive and

timely information on capacities, production, usage,

trade, stocks, prices, technologies, research develop-

ment, and in other areas that may influence the supply

and demand for copper.

International Commodity Body

The Study Group was accepted as an “International

Commodity Body” (ICB), under the Common Fund

for Commodities (CFC). The CFC is an international

financial institution financed by contributions from

United Nations members. The Common Fund can

finance special studies aimed at improving the struc-

tural conditions of the market through grants proposed

by organisations designated as ICBs. The Study

Group may organise discussions between its mem-

bers, and between them and third parties, in order to

conduct studies and projects related to copper market

development and research. If the Study Group re-

search is financed by the Common Fund, third party

market development and research institutions will

carry it out.

Membership

Membership is open to any country involved in cop-

per production, usage, or international trade, and any

international governmental organisation competent to

negotiate, conclude and implement international

agreements, in particular related to commodities. The

current members are:

Australia Belgium Chile

China Finland France

Germany Greece India

Italy Japan Luxembourg

Mexico Peru Poland

Portugal Russian Fed. Serbia

Spain Sweden United States

Zambia EU- European Union

Organisational Structure and Meetings

The General Session of member countries is the su-

preme authority of the ICSG. The executive head of

the ICSG is the Secretary General, assisted by a pro-

fessional staff at the Group’s Lisbon headquarters.

The detailed work program is co-ordinated by subor-

dinate Committees, such as the Standing, Finance,

Statistical, Environmental and Economic. An Indus-

try Advisory Panel provides expert advice to the Study

Group and is composed of copper industry representa-

tives. The ICSG meets in General Session once a

year. Meetings of all committees are held immedi-

ately ahead of the General Session. A second session

is also held near year-end for the Standing, Statistical

and Environmental and Economic Committees.

DEFINITIONS AND EXPLANATORY NOTES

PRODUCTION

Mine production

The goal is to achieve uniform contained copper sta-

tistics for mine production. Contained copper is de-

fined as the analytical amount of copper outputted in

concentrates and precipitates.

Where applicable, statistical notation is made for sol-

vent-extraction/electrowinning (SX-EW) at the mine

level to distinguish this production from copper de-

rived from concentrates and cement copper. While

only one SX-EW category is shown at the mine level,

SX-EW is separated statistically into two marketable

types at the smelter and refinery levels. High-grade

electrowon (Commercial Cathode) is SX-EW produc-

tion that can be treated as refined cathode and sold as

such. Low-grade electrowon is SX-EW production

that must be re-refined.

Smelter Production

Smelter production is divided into three groupings

relating to the source of material used in producing

blister, anode and other smelter-level products. The

three categories are: Primary, from concentrates and

precipitates; Low-grade electrowon from SX-EW and

RLE plants; and Secondary, from scrap materials.

Electrowon copper resulting from roast-leach-

electrowon (RLE) processes is treated as from con-

centrates at the mine-level and, as from electrowin-

ning at the smelter and refinery levels. Low-grade

electrowon from scrap is included in secondary

smelter-production. To avoid double counting blister

and anode, purchased and returned anode is excluded.

Copper of Cu-Ni-matte is treated as smelter produc-

tion at the source.

Refinery Production

Refinery production is broken into three statistical

source categories: Primary (electrolytic and fire-

refined); Secondary (electrolytic and fire-refined);

and Electrowon (High-grade SX-EW) refined produc-

tion. Electrowon from copper-nickel matte is in-

cluded in the primary category where this is neces-

sary.

USAGE

Recognising that metals are not consumed, but rather

used, and therefore available for future reuse and re-

cycling, the ICSG refers to refined copper production

and refined copper usage in its reports.

Copper usage represents refined copper used by semi-

fabricators, i.e., at wire-rod mills, brass mills, foun-

dries, chemical plants and other miscellaneous manu-

facturers. Usage data is either directly reported by the

country, or the Secretariat estimates an apparent usage

using the following formula: Refined copper produc-

tion + refined imports - refined exports + refined

beginning stocks - ending stocks. Some countries,

such as Canada, use shipments of refined copper

where stocks at consumers and producers are inher-

ently considered. Metal Exchanges warehouse stocks

are treated according to the trade reporting scheme of

a particular country. For many countries, some of the

parts of this formula are missing, i.e., some countries

do not produce refined copper or hold refined stocks.

Trade data is available for most countries

STOCKS

Refined copper stocks are reported where held by the

exchanges, the London Metal Exchange (LME), the

Commodity Metal Exchange (COMEX), New York,

Shanghai Futures Exchange (SHFE) and by consum-

ers, producers and governments. Merchant stocks are

included where it is certain that these are nonduplica-

tive to those already reported. Only refined products

at plant sites are included. Items such as wire rod,

tube and other semifabricated forms are not included.

TRADE

Trade in all forms of crude, unwrought, wrought and

semifabricated products and scrap are reported. In the

case of semifabricates, only the major groupings are

shown. Trade in copper and copper alloy ingot and

master alloys are reported. Although there are more

than 370 copper and copper alloys cast, the ingot type

is not identified in the trade classes. Master alloys

and hardeners are copper based alloys cast with high

alloying element content and are used for producing

copper alloys. Quantities reported are indicated on

the tables. Most data is in copper content, but where

gross weight is reported, this is indicated on the table.

In the case of copper ores and concentrates, most

countries only report trade in gross weight. In this

case, estimates of copper content of concentrates are

made on information available. Trade data originates

from reporting countries.

PRICES

Refined copper prices not only relate to the refined

shape and its quality, but also to the manner in which

it is priced; i.e., through producer's annually negoti-

ated contracts, or through the commodity exchanges.

Refined copper prices reported in this bulletin are the

average high grade cathode spot price at the London

Metal Exchange and at the COMEX, and the U.S.

Producer Price. The U.S. producer price is based on

estimated U.S. refined cathode selling prices of U.S.

producers, quoted on a delivered basis. The producer

price is weighted by each producer's estimated share

of shipments. Futures contracts have changed gradu-

ally over the years to correspond to the most active

markets. At the end of December 1989, COMEX

dropped the standard contract, and adopted a high-

grade contract. The LME dropped its standard cath-

ode contract in January 1989 and currently trades only

the Grade A (high-grade) cathode contract. Copper

has been traded internationally on the LME since

January 1, 1877. Trading on the COMEX began on

May 15, 1929.

RECYCLING

Scrap statistics are collected at each processing level.

Refined secondary material represents scrap that has

been fire-refined, or that has been converted to anode

at the smelter level and then electrolytically refined.

Direct, or Remelt scrap is secondary material that can

be used directly in a furnace without cleanup through

the use of fluxes and poling and re-refining. Remelt

scrap is made up largely of purchased "new" or

"manufacturing” return scrap, whereas most scrap for

refining is made up of "old" used copper items. New

scrap has a shelf life of only a few months, whereas

old scrap has an average shelf life of about 20 years.

Old scrap is considered to be a resource that competes

with newly mined material. Trade is reported in two

general scrap types, unalloyed copper scrap and al-

loyed copper-base scrap. Ashes and residues are gen-

erally made up of materials containing less than 30%

copper.

QUANTITIES

All quantities in this report are in metric tonnes unless

otherwise indicated. Prices will be given in cents per

pound and U.S. dollars per metric tonne. Most items

are in copper content. Gross weight items are indi-

cated on the tables.

SYMBOLS

Estimates are indicated in italics. A zero will appear

where the amount is less than one-half unit. A (p)

indicates preliminary data and blank spaces indicate

no available data, or zero quantity. All explanatory

footnotes will appear at the end of tables. World To-

tals are independently calculated, consequently they

may not add to the detail shown in the tables. Ton-

nes-per-year may be abbreviated as tpy.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Compilation of this Bulletin is made possible thanks

to the cooperation of member and non-member gov-

ernments, public and private sector statistical organi-

sations, international organisations, industry associa-

tions and companies, and market and research institu-

p/ Preliminary

1/ See note below on seasonal adjustments. Figures in the year-to-date columns represent seasonally adjusted monthly averages.

2/ Apparent refined usage is used for the European Union (EU-15) instead of the accumulation of the individual countries' refined usage.

3/ Surplus or deficit is calculated using total refined production minus refined usage.

4/ Surplus or deficit is calculated using seasonally adjusted total refined production minus seasonally adjusted refined usage.

5/ Averages for the period in US dollars per ton of copper.

6/ Averages for the period in US cents per pound of copper.

Note on seasonal adjustments:

Each month the ICSG issues the above table in a Press Release which is also included in ICSG's web site:

http://www.icsg.org

The International Copper Study Group introduced seasonal adjustments in its supply usage table to help better assess the state of the copper market. The

introduction of seasonally adjusted refined usage and refined balance figures was originally intended to account for the effects of variations in days per

month and holiday periods in certain key copper using regions of the world. Starting with the April 2007 edition of the Copper Bulletin (January 2007

data), the International Copper Study Group will be using the U.S. Census Bureau's X-12 seasonal adjustment program to calculate seasonally adjusted

refined usage, production, and balance figures in order to provide more analytically rigorous seasonally adjusted results. Seasonal adjustments have also

been made for data from past years.

p/ Preliminary. For some countries incomplete.

1/ Semifabricate types do not include castings at foundries, or chemicals.

2/ Beginning with the March 03 issue of the Copper Bulletin, "copper semis" includes only wire rod and wire drawn from other unwrought copper shapes besides brass

mill products. Production of downstream wire mill products, which does not represent the first use of refined copper, is excluded and historical data has been adjusted

to reflect this change.

3/ From 2001 onwards only Belgium (source: Statistical Office)

4/ Copper content

5/ Copper wire rod production ("CCR"). From 2003 onwards only production from refined producers. Since 2006 includes as well one CCR producer.

6/ From 1999 onwards, only copper tube and copper wire rod.

7/ 2006 data may not be comparable to prior year periods

8/ Includes all semis production of not specified composition.

9/ From 2007 onwards only Wirerod

Salient details for each operation are included and the Directory separates operations between Operating & Developing and Exploration & Feasibility stages. The Directory is published twice a year.

ICSG GLOBAL COPPER SCRAP RESEARCH PROJECT FINAL REPORT (August 2010). Copper scrap generation, trade and use are playing a key role to balance the growth observed in recent years in the global copper market. If the demand for copper continues the dynamic growth related to electrification, infrastructure development and urbanization observed mainly in developing countries, and led by China in the last two decades, then the domestic supply, demand and international flows of copper scrap are expected to remain important issues for all copper related business in the medium and long term. This report presents a comprehensive picture of the global copper scrap market and its determinants, synthesizing the findings of ICSG research project on the copper and copper alloy scrap market.

DIRECTORY OF COPPER & COPPER ALLOY FABRICATORS (FIRST USE) 2011 EDITION. This directory provides a systematic global overview of companies and plants involved in the first use of copper. First users are mainly semis fabricators that process refinery shapes into semi-finished copper and copper alloy products. The Directory covers wire rod plants, ingot makers (for castings), master alloy plants, brass mills, and electrodeposited copper foil mills. Published July 2011.

COPPER SCRAP MARKET IN JAPAN (2009), CHINA’s SCRAP USAGE SURVEY (2009), DOMESTIC COPPER SCRAP GENERATION IN CHINA, 2010-2015 (2009), CHINESE COPPER SCRAP MARKET (2009) AND THE COPPER SCRAP MARKET IN INDIA (2009), Acknowledging the importance of the copper scrap market, ICSG commissioned reports about scrap that provide useful information on three critical copper markets: Japan, India and China. The Japanese Report by MERI/J, provides a comprehensive overview of the Japanese refined copper and copper scrap markets and also covers Japanese copper scrap trade, material flows, how scrap is categorized and relevant regulations. The Chinese Reports, prepared by BGRIMM, respectively give better insight into scrap usage in China at the smelters/refineries and fabricators and forecast domestic scrap generation in China. The Chinese Copper Scrap market Study was prepared by Beijing Antaike Information Development Co., Ltd, and the Indian Study by the India Copper Development Centre.

ICSG STATISTICAL DATABASE. The ICSG maintains one of the world's most complete historical and current databases with statistics on copper production capacities, data on copper production, consumption, stocks, prices, recycling and trade for copper products.
