Copper ore is widely but unevenly distributed in china, with Tibet, Yunnan and Jiangxi being the largest holders of copper reserve. The output of most cathode copper manufacturers in China was continuously increasing in the last 10 years. And many manufactures has expanded or going to expand their copper production capacity by improving the production line or investing a new project in 2010. In the future, sharply increasing demand and Chinese government’s policies will drive Chinese copper production to increase continuously.
Although China is the largest copper production base, there is big gap between supply and demand. China highly depends on imported copper ore, with its self-sufficiency rate witnessing downtrend in last 5 years and its import volume of copper reaching 3.11 million tonnes in 2009. And its self-sufficiency rate was 35.96%in 2009.
