Mercuria and Zambia to Ship First Copper Under New Partnership

 

Mercuria Energy Group and a Zambian state-owned company are set to ship their first copper under a new trading partnership after obtaining a government waiver to export a semi-processed form of the metal.

The venture, working with mining companies, has secured copper concentrates to sell, Mulumba Lwatula, head of mining and energy investments at Zambia’s Industrial Development Corp., said by phone Friday.
