  • Resumen: Abstract: Thanks to its durable, reliable, versatile, ductile and recyclable characteristics, copper is an essential metal for several industries, being the preferred electrical and thermal conductor. While it is naturally exposed to industrial cycles, from a long-term standpoint, copper demand has seen consistent growth, associated to the annuity of global population growth, which has allowed a constant need for copper-containing consumer products. More recently, copper has become a strategic metal for the future of clean technology, as the continuous global warming concerns due to greenhouse gasses emissions have forced governments and companies to combat climate change and intensify the actions and investments needed for a sustainable low carbon future. As such, the adoption of renewable sources of energy and electric vehicles have seen significant global penetration in recent years, and it is expected to increase at a higher rate, raising concerns on the ability of current and future producers to supply the inevitable growing demand in the near future. The purpose of this study is to evaluate three copper focused mining companies, two operators and one developer, aiming to identify the stock that represents the most attractive opportunity for long-term focused investors with exposure to the copper sector. For this purpose, the author uses the last ten years of financial data from the companies (when available) to evaluate their financial performance and current financial health, as well as the management and operational information to analyse the companies’ portfolio of mines and projects.
