London copper prices rose on Monday after a decision by MMG Ltd to shut down production at its Las Bambas mine in Peru exacerbated supply concerns in an already tight market, although the metal’s gains were capped by a firmer dollar.
Three-month copper on the London Metal Exchange rose 0.5% to $9,460 a tonne, as of 0540 GMT, while the most-traded January copper contract on the Shanghai Futures Exchange inched up 0.1% to 69,300 yuan ($10,879.12) a tonne.
