Domestic copper cathode output in February stood at 835,700 mt, up 2.1% month-on-month (MoM) and 1.7% year-on-year (YoY). Overall, domestic smelters resumed the production steadily in February. After the output of several large smelters in the south returned to normal levels, the overall domestic copper cathode output rose both MoM and YoY.
The domestic copper cathode output in December stood at 870,300 mt, up 5.38% month-on-month (MoM) and 0.97% year-on-year (YoY). Generally speaking, many smelters have completed their maintenance, and some recovered quickly from accidents.
