Category : Chemicals and Materials | Published at : December-2022 | Delivery Format : PDF | Status: Published | Pages : 250

The Global Copper Market Size accounted for USD 291.1 Billion in 2021 and is projected to occupy a market size of USD 446.7 Billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2022 to 2030.

Increasing demand for copper could be met by developments in mining technology, well-organized designs of ore processing, and the finding of new copper reserves. According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), international copper reserves rose approximately 720 million tons in 2017, and undiscovered copper reserves are valued to stand at approximately 3,500 million tons. In Europe, the total number of copper reserves is minimum, and these reserves fail to meet the gap between the demand and supply for copper in the region. Copper is the only metal that does not lose its chemical and physical properties after reprocessing. Manufacturers in the region are taking advantage of this by utilizing the circular economy of copper to meet the growing demand for copper. The term ‘circular economy of copper’ states to the renewable nature of copper led by its reprocessing and reusing. The used copper products are recycled to excerpt copper and the removed copper is re-used to manufacture new products.

According to the Copper Org data, the copper content of world mine production was 22,681 thousand tons in 2020
