For example, in the US, in-use copper grew from 73 to 238 kg per capita between 1932–1999. The report's authors observed that, as metals are inherently recyclable, metal stocks in society can serve as huge above-ground mines (the term "urban mining" has thus been coined [77]). However, they found that the recycling rates of many metals are low.
Production trends in the top five copper-producing countries, 1950-2012. This is a list of countries by mined copper production. Copper ore can be exported to be smelted so that a nation's smelter production of copper can differ greatly from its mined production. See: List of countries by copper smelter production.
Recycling Rates of Metals: A Status Report was the 2nd of six scientific assessments on global metals to be published by the International Resource Panel (IRP) of the United Nations Environment Programme. The IRP provides independent scientific assessments and expert advice on a variety of areas, including:
An estimated 80% of all copper ever mined is still in use today. [46] In volume, copper is the third most recycled metal after iron and aluminium. [47] As of 2023, recycled copper supplies about one-third of global demand. [48] The process of recycling copper is roughly the same as is used to extract copper but requires fewer steps.
