Glencore reports lower FY coal, copper output

Output across most of diversified major Glencore’s production categories fell in 2015, with coal output down 10% year-on-year, copper production 3% year-on-year and nickel 5% year-on-year. Coal production decreased to 131.5-million tonnes, owing to the curtailment of production in response to market conditions and the deconsolidation of the Optimum Coal assets.
