On August 11, ZIJIN MINING fell 3.14% in regular trading, trading at 36.28 HKD/share, with turnover of HKD 885 million. The broad Diversified Metals and Mining sector retreated collectively after the prior session's rally.
On the news front, the decline reflects a sector-wide correction following the previous trading day's gains, which were catalyzed by Congo's administrative ban on copper and cobalt concentrate exports. ZIJIN MINING had surged over 3% on August 10 on supply-tightening expectations. Sector peers also weakened, with Wanguo Gold Group down 4.62%, CMOC down 3.76%, and MMG down 1.5%.
Additionally, the market continues to digest ZIJIN MINING's recent termination of its approximately CAD 5.5 billion acquisition of Allied Gold Corporation, opting instead for a CAD 416.6 million subscription for a 9.2% stake. JPMorgan maintained ZIJIN MINING as its top copper mining pick with an Overweight rating and a target price of 50 HKD.
