Dig deep: Improved demand from construction and strong export activity will promote growth
Copper, Nickel, Lead & Zinc Mining in the U.S.
The Copper, Nickel, Lead and Zinc Mining industry is heavily tied to the ruling market prices of its metals, leaving mine operators open to severe fluctuations in demand from refineries. A revival in downstream demand and the rising prices of zinc and lead will contribute to industry growth over the next five years. Furthermore, the globalization of the industry will prove to be an increasingly important area for miners over this period as exports rise.
Firms in the industry mine copper-, nickel-, lead- or zinc-bearing ore. They may also develop mine sites and convert the mined ore into concentrates for further processing.
This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
