Copper Shortage Grows as U S Demands Rise
The United States faces a mounting copper shortage as domestic demand climbs beyond current production. President Truman creates a new agency to boost exploration and secure supplies, while defense needs take priority over civilian demand. Miners report U S output around 900000 tons yearly, with potential deposits capable of 250000 tons annually after 5 to 8 years, leaving long-term supply tight.
