How this is calculated
Base metals are quoted per kilogram or per tonne on the exchanges; this is the kilogram figure. Copper trades per pound, so every figure here starts from that quote and is converted with the factor shown next to the result.
This is the exchange price for refined metal. Scrap and dealer prices sit below it.
