Copper prices rose on Friday, heading for their first weekly gain in nine weeks, on concerns that supply would tighten further as unionised workers at a Codelco mine decided to strike after a labour deal fell through.
Unionised workers at Codelco’s Chuquicamata copper mine, one of the world’s largest, said they would walk off their job beginning Friday after the firm did not meet their key requests, including health care, fair treatment and retirement benefits.
