DRC Export Ban Sparks Nonferrous Metals Rally, Analysts See Limited Lasting Impact
The Democratic Republic of Congo's export ban has ignited a rally in China's nonferrous metals sector, with cobalt and copper stocks surging across the board. On August 7, Hanrui Cobalt jumped 8.53%, Tengyuan Cobalt rose 5.86%, and Huayou Cobalt gained 6.30%; Jiangxi Copper climbed 7.20%, and Tongling Nonferrous Metals advanced 5.94%. The move follows the DRC government's order to ban exports of copper and cobalt concentrates, aiming to promote domestic downstream processing. Institutions broadly view this as more of a sentiment shock than a fundamental one. Funeng Futures noted the ban is a reiteration and tightening of existing controls, while Fubao Nonferrous Metals' copper analysis team pointed out that most copper concentrates are already refined domestically, with limited actual export volumes. Listed companies including Zijin Mining, CMOC Group, Huayou Cobalt, and Hanrui Cobalt all responded that the ban has limited impact on their operations, as their products are mostly blister copper, cathode copper, or cobalt hydroxide, not concentrates. Meanwhile, copper market supply disruptions remain frequent. LME copper inventories fell 24.11% month-on-month in July, while COMEX copper stocks continued to hit record highs. Goldman Sachs expects the copper supply deficit outside the US to surge from 60,000 tonnes to 640,000 tonnes, and Citigroup forecasts London copper could challenge 15,000 dollars per tonne in the next six to twelve months.

CMOC expects first-half attributable net profit to rise 78.76% to 90.29% year-on-year
CMOC announced that it expects to achieve attributable net profit of 15.5 billion to 16.5 billion yuan in the first half of 2026, a year-on-year increase of 78.76% to 90.29%. Deducted non-recurring attributable net profit is expected to be 15 billion to 16 billion yuan, up 71.94% to 83.40% year-on-year. The profit growth is mainly due to higher volumes and prices for its main copper products, significantly higher prices for molybdenum and tungsten products, and the consolidation of its Brazilian gold mining business. Copper metal production in the first half was approximately 388,000 tonnes, up about 9.73% year-on-year. In the first quarter, the company achieved revenue of 66.403 billion yuan and attributable net profit of 7.76 billion yuan.
CMOC expects attributable net profit of 15.5 billion to 16.5 billion yuan in first half of 2026, up 78.76% to 90.29% year-on-year
CMOC has disclosed its earnings forecast, expecting attributable net profit of 15.5 billion to 16.5 billion yuan in the first half of 2026, representing a year-on-year increase of 78.76% to 90.29%. Deducted non-recurring net profit is expected to be 15 billion to 16 billion yuan, up 71.94% to 83.4% year-on-year. The company stated that the year-on-year improvement in performance was mainly driven by both higher volumes and prices of its main copper products, a significant rise in molybdenum and tungsten product prices, and the consolidation of its Brazilian gold mining business. Based on the closing price on July 10, CMOC's current price-to-earnings ratio is approximately 13.29 to 13.78 times, its price-to-book ratio is about 4.52 times, and its price-to-sales ratio is about 1.65 times.
Xiamen Tungsten's controlled subsidiary Luoyang Yulu Mining has largely suspended production after CMOC stopped supplying it with post-molybdenum tailings. Luoyang Yulu, 60 percent owned by Xiamen Tungsten and 40 percent by CMOC, specializes in recovering scheelite from the molybdenum tailings of CMOC's Sandaozhuang molybdenum mine in Luanchuan. CMOC said the move is to comply with national compliance management requirements for tungsten ore. The two sides have yet to agree on a resolution, and negotiations are ongoing. In 2025, Luoyang Yulu produced 1,924 tonnes of scheelite and sold 1,614 tonnes, generating revenue of 363 million yuan and net profit of 123 million yuan. The net profit attributable to Xiamen Tungsten was 61.37 million yuan, accounting for 2.66 percent of its consolidated net profit for 2025. Xiamen Tungsten said the shutdown is expected to have some impact on near-term results, but the exact extent cannot be predicted at this stage, and it has set up a special working group to actively address the situation.
