LONG‐TERM COPPER PRODUCTION OPTIONS OF THE DEVELOPING COUNTRIES

Marian Radetzki

Natural Resources Forum, 1977, vol. 1, issue 2, 145-155

Abstract: After petroleum, copper is the most important foreign exchange earner of the developing countries. Supply of copper from developing nations is heavily concentrated in six countries. The production strategies of these countries can, therefore, have a significant impact on world copper trends as well as on their own copper earnings. The author, former Chief Economist of CIPEC, examines the implications of two alternative growth paths for long‐term copper production in these countries.
