Indonesia trade ministry supports extending Freeport’s copper export permit

ByVictoria

Freeport’s last export permit expired at the end of 2024, but the company has requested it can continue selling copper concentrate abroad because its local copper smelter was in repair after a fire in October last year.

“The trade ministry supports a plan to relax the export policy after weighing the cost and benefit analysis … while also observing the sustainability of the government’s natural resource downstreaming policy,” deputy minister Dyah Roro Esti said in a statement.

Freeport Indonesia said that it’s currently negotiating with the government over the export permit and believed the government “would accommodate” it.
