We have the Panama Canal that consumes enormous water resources and is a national priority. At the end we have a hole where there was a forest, Less water resources, tons of copper were taken and Panama did not receive any good impact Beyond saying that they are 5% of the GDP.

    There is a lot of copper that can be recycled. The problem is that it is very costly to do so as it has to be transported, separated and extracted from the bigger mass it is a part of. In many cases the cost of recycling is more than getting it from a mine. That comparison can vary depending on what you are comparing against. In any case, it isn't cheap to recycle... but it will become a bigger part of copper extraction in the future - which means higher prices all around. Inflation is going to be with us for a very long time as commodity prices especially in copper, and rare earths are going to cost much more.

The average mine takes nearly 1 Billion Dollars in investment money. Why would you do that when they are barely making a profit now. It will take prices two or three times as much to make it worth their investment. Even then, it will take 15 to 20 years for these mines to come online and who knows what the price will be then. So it may take considerably more than that and for prices to remain there for a while for investment to take place.

    I wish journalists would explain the difference between reserves and resources in their videos. Yes in this video they clerly state at 5:13 it is reserves but the vast majority of viewers dont know the difference between reserves and resources. Reserves are resources that a profitable to mine at whatever price was used in the study of the viability of the mining of the mine. Even "just" a dollar more in the copper price would move the reserves up on a global scale and most of these prophecies of high copper prices due to lack of resources/reserves (used completelly interchangably) completely omit the fact, that a high price in copper would move massive amounts of copper from resources (not feasible to mine) to reserves (minably). There is enough copper in the world if we are just willing to pay a high enough price, esp. considering how much more productive we have become globally relative to copper price movement the last two decades.

The problem about it being one of the most polluting industries is that, together with farming, it's the most important industry we simply cannot live without. You either grow it or you mine it.
      To your point with price. A higher price will let us mine resources that a currently not feasible to mine, and many of these are not placed on top of relegious sites, close to waterways etc. It will never be possible to mine without having a footprint on the enviroment, however its wastly better to move mines out to places where the effect on the biosphere is much less. Its better to effect fewer and smaller areas than to keep changing the enviroment on a global scale due to fossil fuels.

Don't let the mega corps push you around. With the finished copper products you can then expand your manufacturing sector to use some of it and go from there. If you're exporting unrefined material then you'd have to refine it yourself at great cost.
