DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7j99ks/base_metals) has announced the addition of the "Base Metals Mining in Poland to 2020 - a Focus on the Copper Industry" report to their offering.
'Base Metals Mining in Poland to 2020 - a Focus on the Copper Industry' report comprehensively covers Polish reserves of copper, copper resources by deposits, historic and forecast copper mine production, copper prices, historic and forecast copper metal consumption, consumption by end-use sector and imports by country. The report also includes demand drivers affecting the Polish copper mining industry, profile of the major copper mining company and information on the active and exploration projects.
Poland had the world's eighth-largest global reserves of copper in January 2015, at 28Mt or 4% of the global total. Most Polish copper ores are of the stratabound type, located in the areas of Fore-Sudetic Monocline and North Sudetic Basin in Lower Silesia. Demand for copper is mainly driven by the construction and electronics industries. The country imported majority of copper ores and concentrates from Brazil, Morocco, Australia and Botswana - collectively accounting for 99.7% of total copper ores and concentrates imports in 2014.
Key Highlights
- Poland had the eighth largest copper reserves in the world at 28 million tonnes (Mt) in January 2015, equivalent to 4% share of global reserves.
- Poland was the second-largest copper producer in Europe in 2014 and the 12th-largest in the world. Copper content in the ore has steadily decreased in recent years and was 1.5% in 2014.
- Polish copper consumption mainly centers on the metal's use in the electric, electronics and construction industries.
- In 2014, the Polish construction industry picked up as new infrastructure contracts awarded by the government helped to drive activity together with EU funding providing additional support, given that much of it will be directed towards infrastructure development.
