    Copper outputs up amid tariffs

    BHP warned Thursday that a tariff war could slow the global economy and disrupt world trade, as the world’s biggest miner reported a slight decline in quarterly iron ore production and a 10% rise in copper output due to higher volumes from the giant Escondida mine in Chile.

    “Despite the limited direct impact of tariffs on BHP, the implication of slower economic growth and a fragmented trading environment could be more significant,” CEO Mike Henry said. “China’s ability to shift toward a consumption-led economy and for trade flows to adapt to the new environment will be key to sustaining the global outlook.”

    Ghana gold output to increase

    Ghana’s gold production could increase by around 6.25% to approximately 5.1 million ounces in 2025, up from last year’s record output of 4.8 million ounces, the Chamber of Mines in Africa’s top gold-producing nation said on Friday.

    “We project gold output to range between 4.4 and 5.1 million ounces, buoyed by increased contributions from Newmont’s Ahafo South Mine and Shandong’s Namdini Mine,” Chamber of Mines President Michael Akafia said at an annual gathering in the capital Accra.

    “We’re looking at about 30% to 40% more production than the previous year,” the general secretary of the group, Godwin Armah, told Reuters.
