This article focuses on the Bureau of International Recycling (BIR) Non-Ferrous Metals Division meeting in Beijing, China which discussed several stressful operating conditions created by the surge in non-ferrous metal prices for the recycling sector, as of June 2006. Marc Natan, president of the Non-Ferrous Metals Division of the BIR, said the non-ferrous metal markets had enjoyed a brilliant recent past. Since the beginning of 2005, the price of copper had soared almost 190 percent. Aluminum had enjoyed a spectacular growth to $3,240 per ton while lead had reached its own particular peak in the early part of 2006. |
