How to use copper in a sentence?

1. Robert Friedland:

   But now even Joe Biden has said he will support the mining of copper in the United States because they know they need it.

2. Seiichi Murayama:

   We want to keep our unique and broad supply chain from upstream to downstream, but we can't make hundreds of billions of yen of investment now in copper mines where development cost is expected to increase even further.

3. Julia Wang:

   Indeed, demand for commodities (coal, iron ore, crude oil, copper) have slowed across the board, both in volume as well as value terms. This suggests that the domestic industrial sector has probably slowed over the month.

4. Daniel Malchuk:

   If you look at our copper portfolio, these are assets that will be operating for decades. So the value of our assets is not dependent on what happens today or in six months time. It is dependent on what is going to happen in the next 10 or 20 years.

5. James Butterfill:

   We expect miners to continue to cut capex, which raises concerns over their longer term profitability, that's why we think we're nearing the floor in copper... as the cuts in capex will lead to a constriction on supply. Markets have also priced in a big contraction in Chinese consumption, which the data is not supporting.
