China's Jiangxi Copper hits 800,000 t output goal
HONG KONG, Dec 30 - Jiangxi Copper Co Ltd (600362.SS) (0358.HK), China's top producer of the metal, has achieved its 2009 output target of 800,000 tonnes of refined copper even though production has fallen this month because of annual repairs, a company spokesman said on Wednesday.
Output has been just over 800,000 tonnes this year, company spokesman Kang Shuigen told Reuters.
The output figure represented a rise of 14 percent from 702,000 tonnes last year. (Reporting by Polly Yam; Editing by Chris Lewis)
