Copper Shortages Crucial to Expected Price Increases

The unexpected deficit in global copper supplies through 2024 will be critical to maintaining the metal's price increases through the year. As 2023 drew to a close, two major copper mines closed down and cut down expected copper supplies by a wide margin, plunging the global supply chain into an unexpected deficit that eventually caused a surge in copper prices. This upward momentum pushed copper prices to such a high degree they almost reached the $10,000 per metric ton mark that is expected to be supported through the rest of the year by impending copper shortages. Increased expectations of a…

Federal Officials Unveil New Rules Regulating Silica Dust Levels in Mines

Earlier this week, federal officials unveiled new rules protecting miners from silica dust, a toxic component that gets trapped in lung tissue causing scarring and inflammation. Silica is found in abundance on earth and is roughly 20 times more toxic than coal dust. It is commonly found in the quartz that surrounds coal seams. This is a growing issue in mines that has left some individuals sick and even caused some individuals to die. Researchers have, for decades now, recommended that exposure to silica dust be limited and regulated so overexposure is avoided. The new rules impose exposure limits applied…
