Copper prices have been volatile in 2025 due to geopolitical events, plus shifting supply/demand dynamics.

Overall, prices were on an upward trajectory throughout the year as demand growth accelerated on the back of the development of artificial intelligence, the growing need for data centres and the energy transition.

However, the increased demand comes amid significant disruptions to supply that include the closure of portions of two of the world’s largest copper mines, Ivanhoe Mines' (TSX:IVN,OTCQX:IVPAF) Kamoa-Kakula copper complex in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Freeport-McMoRan's (NYSE:FCX) Grasberg copper-gold mine in Indonesia.
