About two months ago, Chile’s government began reviewing how its funding Codelco.
Codelco is “struggling to finance an ambitious, multi-year investment plan, previously estimated at about $27 billion…The government has awarded Codelco $1 billion for 2013, an amount which the miner deemed insufficient,” reports Reuters.
“‘We are analysing how we give Codelco money but have not made a decision yet. Problem is, more money to Codelco is less money towards education, infrastructure, etc," said Chile’s mining minister Hernan de Solminihac, who was in London to attend a major mining industry event, LME Week.”
On Tuesday, October 8, the day’s biggest mover was the cash price of Japanese copper, which saw a 1.0 percent increase. The price of US copper producer grade 110 fell 0.3 percent.

The price of Chinese copper wire saw essentially no change for the fifth day in a row. The price of Chinese bright copper scrap continues to hover for the fifth day in a row.
