    Last night, the nonferrous metal fell overall, but the decline in Shanghai copper was not deep, and there was support
    at the short-term 60-day moving average.
    Yesterday's copper spot turned to discount, large destocking, refined waste substitution and other parts of the benefits have weakened, the transmission effectiveness of ore supply disturbance is doubtful, the fundamentals lack new driving force, copper prices may have entered the end of the upward movement
    .
    However, the two sessions are approaching, the market still has expectations for policies, short-term prices have some support, the decline is not expected to be deep, and more attention is paid to protecting profits
    .

    .

    Macroscopically, basically remained stable, copper prices in the recent stage of fluctuations are mainly affected by the epidemic, the past two days have declined, spot premiums have fallen sharply, high pressure began to reflect, recent shocks, need to be treated with caution, but do not worry too much, the domestic epidemic has been controlled, the current domestic consumption has picked up

    1.
    Recently, Tongling Nonferrous Jinguan Copper Industry Branch designed the Osmat smelting process project with an annual output of 200,000 tons of copper cathode officially put into trial production, and the whole process production line is expected to be officially put into operation
    by the end of June.
    At that time, Jinguan Copper Branch will form an annual production capacity
    of 640,000 tons of copper cathode.
    On December 18, 2012, the company's annual output of 400,000 tons of copper cathode "double flash" project was completed and put into operation, which is the world's largest copper smelter
    built at one time.
    On May 18, 2018, the "Osmet Furnace" project, designed for an annual output of 200,000 tons of copper cathode, was officially put into trial production, in which the electrolysis system adopts "one-time design and phased construction"
    .

    The Indonesian government and the parliamentary committee responsible for mineral resources agreed
    on Monday on amendments to the country's mining law.
    The revision of the new mining law will later provide regional governments (PENDAs) with a higher share of mining revenue sharing, and local governments will receive a 1.
