According to 67 decision makers in the global mining and metals industry who participated in the survey, a 39 percent share of the respondents stated that copper prices are more likely to recover the quickest post-COVID-19.
Other mineral commodity prices, such as nickel, coal, and aluminum, are not expected to recover as easily as copper and gold following the pandemic. For instance, the global demand for coal fell significantly during the pandemic, which led to prices falling sharply.
