Content Headlines of CD ROM

• Copper is a natural element – a metal that has been one of mankind’s most useful and valuable materials.
• It is represented by the chemical symbol Cu and the atomic number 29.
• Copper is also an essential nutrient that is required by virtually all higher life forms.
• It is an essential component of dietary nutrition that enables the body to metabolize energy and function properly.
• Copper is available in many forms including bars, foil, sheet, granules, plates, powder, shot, turnings, wire, insulated wire, mesh, "evaporation slugs", and rods.
• As with humans, plants and animal health rely on adequate copper intake. 
• The world’s two most important food crops – rice and wheat – are both highly dependent on sufficient copper in soil.
• Copper is low in the reactivity series. This means that it doesn't tend to corrode. Again, this is important for its use for pipes, electrical cables, saucepans and radiators. 
• However, it also means that it is well suited to decorative use. Jewellery, statues and parts of 
  buildings can be made from copper, brass or bronze and remain attractive for thousands of 
  years.
• Most copper production is based upon sulphide ores containing little copper but quite a lot of iron. New cleaner technologies are now important but older processes present major environmental problems.
• Copper can be recycled without any loss of quality. 40% of the world's demand is met by recycled copper.
• It is cheaper to recycle copper than to mine and extract new copper. Recycled copper is worth up to 90% of the cost of the original copper. Recycling helps to keep the cost of copper products down.
• To date, only 12% to 13% of all known reserves have been mined. However, it still makes sense to conserve the remaining ore by recycling.
• Global demand for copper is likely to grow by 3.5% over the next three years, increasing the critical demand supply gap. This could keep copper prices firm in the international markets.
• The JFTC market largely drives domestic demand. Industry believes that demand is likely to register robust growth with the Government targeting telephone density of 15% by 2010. The demand is likely to come from rural areas.
