铜业超级周期下的中国力量:五矿资源如何下好全球资源棋?
2 1 Shi Ji Jing Ji Bao Dao· 2026-01-06 09:05
在全球绿色转型与数字基建双重浪潮推动下,铜正从传统大宗商品跃升为驱动新能源科技和AI发展的 关键原材料。然而,新一轮铜业超级周期带来的不仅是价格机遇,更是对资源企业全链条运营能力的极 限考验——从极端环境下的设备可靠性维系,到多元文化背景下的社区关系治理,再到碳约束时代的全 流程能效管理,任何一个环节的脆弱性都可能成为海外资产的"致命断点"。 全球工业设备维护领域对这一挑战的认知已达成共识。比如,深耕全球工业润滑解决方案百余年的埃克 森美孚,就指出"在极端工况下,设备连续稳定运转是海外矿山运营的生命线。高海拔、强粉尘等环境 对设备润滑方案提出特殊要求,需要基于实时数据的预防性维护策略,这些都是保障出海业务成功的关 键"。 以此作为解读中国矿业企业出海进阶路径的分析框架,我们发现,以市场化方式深度参与全球铜资源博 弈的五矿资源,正是这一"系统韧性"命题中国样本的生动演绎。 秘鲁安第斯山脉的高原上,巨型矿卡在拉斯邦巴斯铜矿的矿坑中往复穿梭,这里年产铜精矿含铜约40万 吨,产值占整个秘鲁GDP近1%。而在一万七千公里外的港交所,五矿资源的股价曲线正随着国际铜价 一路攀升。 随着全球能源转型加速,叠加AI用铜量的超预 ...

Core Viewpoint - The copper market is experiencing a significant upward trend driven by supply shortages, macroeconomic monetary easing, and surging demand from emerging sectors, with prices reaching historical highs in December 2023 [1][2]. Group 1: Price Trends and Market Performance - As of December 5, 2023, LME copper futures peaked at $11,705 per ton, marking a historical high, while domestic copper futures approached 93,000 yuan per ton [1]. - The A-share copper sector has seen over a 70% increase this year, with companies like Luoyang Molybdenum and Zijin Mining witnessing stock price increases exceeding 100% [1]. - The price surge is attributed to multiple factors, including supply constraints from major production areas and increased demand for copper due to infrastructure upgrades and renewable energy developments [1][2]. Group 2: Supply Constraints - Global copper supply is tightening due to significant production disruptions, including a 28% reduction in annual output guidance from the Kamoa-Kakula mine and a complete suspension of operations at the Grasberg mine until mid-2026 [2]. - The International Copper Study Group reported a mere 1.4% increase in global copper mine production this year, resulting in a supply-demand gap of 150,000 tons, which is expected to widen to 300,000 tons by 2026 [2]. Group 3: Demand Drivers - The transition to renewable energy is driving copper demand, with the International Energy Agency projecting that copper usage in data centers could reach between 250,000 to 550,000 tons by 2030, accounting for 1%-2% of global copper demand [3]. - Analysts expect that structural factors driving copper prices will remain unchanged, keeping prices in an upward trajectory with limited short-term correction opportunities [3]. Group 4: Economic and Financial Factors - The ongoing economic recovery and a loose monetary policy environment are expected to enhance copper's financial attributes, with historical trends indicating that global interest rate cuts can strengthen copper prices [4]. - Optimism regarding future liquidity easing is prevalent, with expectations of continued supportive fiscal and monetary policies both domestically and internationally [4].
港股概念追踪|LME库存近被掏空 摩科瑞被曝大举提货铜(附概念股)

(原标题:港股概念追踪|LME库存近被掏空 摩科瑞被曝大举提货铜(附概念股)) 智通财经APP获悉,全球大宗商品交易巨头Mercuria Energy Group Ltd.正在加速囤积铜,以应对美国潜在关税引发的全球供应短缺。知情人士透 露,该公司已向伦敦金属交易所(LME)监管的仓库申请提取约5万吨的铜,为十多年来最大规模的撤库动作,并直接推动铜价冲向每吨11,500美元 的历史高位。 大宗商品贸易巨头摩科瑞(Mercuria)已发出通知,计划从伦敦金属交易所(LME)的亚洲仓库提取大量铜。四位知情人士透露,摩科瑞已于12 月2日取消了仓单,预定提取LME存放在亚洲仓库中的、超过4万吨铜金属。按当前价格计算,这批铜的价值约为4.6亿美元。 LME当天的数据也显示,其追踪的仓库的铜提货申请量激增50575吨(按吨数计,这是2013年以来的最大增幅),达到56875吨,占LME总库存的 35%。摩科瑞的行动使得现货铜合约相对于三个月期铜期货价格的溢价(即"现货升水"、现货对期货溢价、backwardation)进一步上升。 分析认为,离开LME体系的大部分铜被运往了美国。先前,特朗普政府给予了精炼铜关税豁免。但 ...
