What happened
A study conducted by Nanjing University compared the above-ground copper stocks in China to those in other regions. The findings suggest that India holds only 15 million tonnes of copper, less than China's reported holdings of over 120 million tonnes. The study advises that India should view copper as a national resource and promote recycling to build up reserves.
Why it matters
The ICAI stated that functional reserves per capita in India are low. The organization recommends that India consider buying copper internationally and keeping it within the economy by utilizing concentrate forms and promoting recycling.
