Copper prices rose on Tuesday on a weaker dollar and expectations for better metals demand after Chinese policymakers said they would accelerate infrastructure investment.
Three-month copper on the London Metal Exchange CMCU3 rose 0.7% to $7,707 a tonne by 0624 GMT, and the most-traded October copper contract on the Shanghai Futures Exchange SCFcv1 advanced 1.9% to 61,220 yuan ($8,820.31) a tonne.
The dollar took a breather after a sweeping rally, making greenback-priced metals cheaper to holders of other currencies.
