    Industry news, the world's largest copper miner, Chile's national copper company (Codelco), announced that it will spend $4.
    881 billion to transform the Chuquicamata open-pit copper mine into an underground mining project
    .
    The Chuquicamata renovation is part of Chile's 10-year, $39 billion major project overhaul program as the company looks to sustain production growth
    amid continued declines in ore grades.

    At present, the risk of strike at the Escondida copper mine and the continued decline in refined copper inventories still support the price, but there are still many uncertainties in the macro aspect, investors may prefer short-term operations, and the sustainability of the copper price rebound needs further attention
    .
    Overall, the main force of Shanghai copper is significantly supported at the position of 49,000 yuan, and the increase in import tariffs on scrap copper in the United States may be conducive to domestic refined copper consumption, and it is expected that the short-term copper price shock will strengthen, and the center of gravity of the shock may move up to 49500-50500 yuan / ton
