Copper is a crucial metal in modern society due to its excellent conductivity, making it essential in electrical wiring, electronics, and telecommunications. Its malleability and corrosion resistance also make it ideal for plumbing and construction. With the rise of renewable energy and electric vehicles, demand for copper is expected to continue growing, driving exploration and mining activities worldwide.
The Copper Market
The energy transition is driving demand for a group of critical metals (including lithium, cobalt, nickel and copper) essential for clean energy technologies. The significant production growth in coming years to meet global and national energy transition targets will make efficient mine deployment crucial in ensuring a sustainable supply of these critical resources. CRU Group, with its decades of experience in the mining industry, is closely monitoring the global markets for these critical metals. Below, we provide an overview of the current situation and outlook for the copper market.

Our clients and partners say
Lucara's Karowe mine stands alone in the global context of large diamond recovery as the only location to recover 4 diamonds larger than 1,000 carats. As an early adaptor of sensor-based primary diamond recovery from sized run of mine material, the Stark Team over the years has been instrumental in the design, process flow, construction and commissioning of the XRT circuits. The results are a testament to incredible team work, excellent process flow, and an innovative circuit combined with a truly unique diamond deposit.

Vice President Technical Services
We acquired an updated stand-alone XRT plant and within a very short space of time recovered the 91O ct D-colour Lesotho Legend diamond at Letšeng. This must surely rank as one of the best ROIs that has ever been seen!
Clifford Elphick
Chief Executive Officer
During COVID lockdown the team replaced 5 COMS XRT sorters, washing screens along with XRT building expansion. This was planned remotely with the Karowe Process and Engineering teams, and executed on the ground. At the height of the global pandemic this work was completed safely, on time and on budget, under challenging circumstances - a testament to their ability to plan and execute.
