Core Viewpoint - The report from Tianfeng Securities indicates that global copper mine supply growth is expected to decline further in 2025, with a projected reduction of 23,000 tons, representing a year-over-year decrease of 0.12% [1][2]. Group 1: Supply Dynamics - The anticipated global copper mine production for 2025 is expected to decrease by 23,000 tons, with a year-over-year decline of 0.12% [2]. - Factors contributing to the supply reduction include incidents at Kamoa-Kakula, El Teniente, and Grasberg mines, while expansions at Oyu Tolgoi, MMG, and others are expected to offset some losses [2]. - Despite high copper prices maintaining mine profits around 60%, the supply growth is projected to decline, indicating a disconnect between profitability and production capacity [2][11]. Group 2: Macro Economic Influences - The global macroeconomic environment, characterized by high inflation and interest rates, is increasing project financing costs, which in turn diminishes mining companies' willingness to invest in capital expenditures [6]. - Resource nationalism is on the rise, with new mining laws in countries like Mexico and Panama affecting foreign investment sentiment [6][8]. Group 3: Industry Trends - The copper mining industry is currently in a defensive capital expenditure phase, with CAPEX growth lagging behind historical levels, particularly since 2015 [3][6]. - The trend of declining copper ore grades is limiting the willingness to expand supply, as high-grade resources are becoming increasingly scarce [6]. - The industry is experiencing rising production costs due to increases in transportation, energy, and labor costs, which are contributing to a higher cash cost for copper mining [8][11]. Group 4: Global Resource Distribution - Global copper reserves are relatively healthy, with a total of 980 million tons projected for 2024, providing a static recoverable life of approximately 42.6 years [15]. - Major copper reserves are concentrated in countries like Chile, Peru, Australia, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, while China's copper reserves are only 4% of the global total, indicating a disparity between reserves and production [15][17]. - Chinese mining companies are expanding their footprint in resource-rich regions such as Africa and South America through mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures to bolster their reserves [17][18].

1. Report Industry Investment Ratings - Not mentioned in the provided content 2. Report Core Views Copper - Copper prices strengthened due to improved market risk appetite after China and the US agreed to conduct economic and trade consultations. In the short - term, China - US talks boosted market sentiment, the Fed may stop shrinking its balance sheet, and the COMEX - LME spread widened. Fundamentally, tight copper ore supply supports prices, and high copper prices moderately suppress downstream demand. The terminal demand has strong resilience. The main contract is expected to be supported at 84000 - 85000 [1]. Aluminum - The alumina market remains weak, with supply pressure and weak demand. The futures price is expected to continue to be under pressure, with the main contract oscillating between 2750 - 2950 yuan/ton. Aluminum prices showed a strong - oscillating trend. With stable supply, resilient demand, and declining inventory, the short - term Shanghai aluminum is expected to maintain a high - level oscillation, with the main contract in the range of 20700 - 21300 yuan/ton [3]. Aluminum Alloy - Casting aluminum alloy followed the aluminum price and showed a strong - oscillating trend. Cost support is prominent, but high inventory and policy uncertainty restrict price increases. The short - term ADC12 price is expected to maintain a strong - oscillating pattern, with the main contract in the range of 20200 - 20800 yuan/ton [4]. Zinc - Due to concerns about the LME zinc market squeeze and China - US economic and trade consultations, the Shanghai zinc price rebounded. The supply is loose, and the demand is not outstanding. The short - term price may rise due to macro - drivers but will likely oscillate without a clear inflection point in the supply - loose logic, with the main contract in the range of 21800 - 22800 [8]. Tin - Tin supply is tight, and demand is weak. The tin price continues to oscillate at a high level. If the supply in Myanmar recovers smoothly in the fourth quarter, the tin price may weaken; otherwise, it is expected to continue to run strongly [10]. Nickel - The nickel market is in a state of high - level oscillation. Macro - factors are temporarily stable, and the cost has support, but inventory accumulation restricts the upside space. The main contract is expected to oscillate in the range of 120000 - 126000 [12]. Stainless Steel - The stainless - steel market showed a low - level upward repair. Macro - factors may bring policy expectations. The supply pressure is increasing, and demand improvement is not obvious. The short - term market is expected to oscillate weakly, with the main contract in the range of 12600 - 13000 [14]. Lithium Carbonate - The lithium carbonate market showed a significant upward trend. The supply - demand gap exists in the peak season, and demand is optimistic. The short - term market is expected to run strongly, with the main contract in the range of 76000 - 82000 yuan/ton [16]. 3.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - The Shanghai copper futures price fluctuated downward and returned to the previous trading range. The monthly spread on the futures market widened, and the tightness in the spot market remained unchanged. The domestic social inventory decreased by 0.47 thousand tons compared to Monday. With the reduction in domestic smelting production and imports, the domestic copper supply decreased. However, the current off - season for downstream demand and the strengthening of the spot - futures price spread suppressed demand. Under the short - term situation of weak supply and demand, the social inventory is expected to continue to decline slightly [6]. - The LME copper inventory dropped to 117 thousand tons, with a cancelled warrant ratio of 58.3%. The LME inventory is expected to continue to decline. The high back structure of LME0 - 3 will keep the domestic import window closed and the export window open. Both Shanghai and LME copper face the risk of low inventory [6]. - The Kamoa copper mine lowered its 2025 annual production guidance by 150 thousand tons. Given the current tight supply of copper ore, the reduction in large - mine production will make the global copper ore market more tense in the second half of the year, and the tightness at the raw material end is expected to be transmitted to the smelting end, leading to production cuts by smelters. Fundamentals are still favorable for copper prices [6]. - The US CPI in May was lower than expected, opening up the possibility of a Fed rate cut in September. However, the tense situation in the Middle East and the progress of Sino - US negotiations have increased market caution. In the short term, copper prices will continue to fluctuate under the influence of sentiment [6]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1. Market Review and Operation Suggestions - The Shanghai copper market showed a downward trend, with the monthly spread widening. The domestic social inventory decreased, and the spot premium remained flat. The supply decreased due to smelting cuts and reduced imports, while demand was suppressed by the off - season and the strong spot - futures spread. The LME inventory is decreasing, and the high back structure affects import and export windows. The reduction in Kamoa copper mine's production guidance will tighten the copper ore market, and the fundamentals support copper prices, but market sentiment causes short - term fluctuations [6]. 3.2. Industry News - Cobalt Blue completed the feasibility study of its Halls Creek project in Western Australia, with a phased development plan for copper and zinc production. The Onedin deposit will be mined through open - pit methods and processed to produce copper, while zinc will be recovered as monohydrate zinc acid. The Sandiego deposit will be mined underground to produce copper and zinc concentrates. The project will use a photovoltaic solar grid with battery energy storage for power supply [9]. - Ivanhoe's Kakula mine in the Kamoa - Kakula copper complex in Congo resumed operations in its western area on June 7 after flood control measures, and the eastern area's mining is expected to start soon [9][10]. - On June 11, the government of Guixi City held a project promotion meeting, inspecting multiple copper - related projects such as the regeneration copper - based new material industrial park, copper production and recycling projects, and semiconductor and electronic material projects, and coordinating to solve project - related problems [10].
