Copper Statistics and Plans to Globalize Copper Reports
The New York Metal Exchange reform committee seeks to globalize copper statistics by forming a foreign producers' association, likely in London, to include European stocks and deliveries. Plans aim to shift to call transactions, standard copper, and place New York at the center of world copper speculation, while the Daly-West Mining report shows April to June results and ongoing shaft and crosscut progress. Salt Lake City and Salt Lake projects note Ohio Copper funding, mill construction delays due to steel shortages, and coordinated completion of mill sections and trestle work in 60 to 90 days.
