Últimas noticias sobre BHP Group (NYSE:BHP) Bolsa

BHP Group

BHP is a global diversified miner mainly supplying iron ore and copper. The merger of BHP Limited and Billiton PLC created the present-day BHP Group. The dual-listed structure from the 2001 BHP and Billiton merger was collapsed in 2022. Major assets include Pilbara iron ore and Escondida copper. Onshore US oil and gas assets were sold in 2018 and the remaining Petroleum assets were spun off and merged with Woodside in 2022, with BHP vesting the Woodside shares it received to BHP shareholders. It purchased copper miner Oz Minerals in fiscal 2023 and is entering the potash market through the development of its Jansen project in Canada. However, due to low nickel prices, BHP placed its nickel business on care and maintenance in 2024.

This Johnson Controls International Analyst Is No Longer Bullish; Here Are Top 5 Downgrades For Thursday

Botswana is reportedly seeking a controlling stake in the leading diamond producer De Beers, potentially complicating Anglo American's (OTCQX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAUKF#OTCQX">AAUKF</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/25/06/45812493/anglo-nears-de-beers-sale-as-three-potential-buyers-emerge" rel="noreferrer noopener">plans for the sale</a>.
The sharp downturn in the global diamond industry has destabilized the market and rattled the economy of the southern African nation, which provides over a quarter of the world's production.
Botswana's Minister of Minerals and Energy, Bogolo Kenewendo, stated that the government is committed to taking a greater ownership stake in the company. "President Duma Boko remains resolute in his quest to increase Botswana's stake in De Beers to ensure Botswana's full control over this strategic national asset and the entire value chain, including marketing," Kenewendo <a target="_blank" href="https://www.ft.com/content/1392379f-65c9-4030-941e-aa20290db661" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> to The Financial Times.
The country already holds a 15% stake in De Beers and co-owns the Debswana joint venture, which forms the backbone of De Beers' production.
But frustrations are mounting in Gaborone over Anglo's handling of the sale process. "Our partners at Anglo American have, regrettably, failed to manage the process transparently or in coordination with the government and with our support," Kenewendo added.
Anglo, which is urgently restructuring <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/05/39068033/time-runs-out-for-bhp-deal-49-billion-acquisition-of-anglo-american-proves-too-complex-to-solve" rel="noreferrer noopener">following a failed takeover</a> by BHP Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BHP#NYSE">BHP</a>), is under pressure to offload De Beers by year-end. A dual-track strategy is underway, involving both soliciting bids — due by early August — and exploring a public listing if a buyer doesn't emerge.
Yet, the timing is not in its favor. The diamond sector is in a prolonged slump, exacerbated by the meteoric rise of lab-grown diamonds. Synthetic gems now account for more than 50% of engagement rings in the U.S., and their affordability and identical physical properties have eroded consumer demand for natural stones.
That decline is evident in Anglo's latest earnings, which were released today. Rough diamond production at De Beers <a target="_blank" href="https://www.angloamerican.com/media/press-releases/2025/24-07-2025" rel="noreferrer noopener">plunged 36% year-over-year</a> in the second quarter to 4.1 million carats — its lowest quarterly output in over a decade. The company cited "continued production response to the prolonged period of lower demand."
Meanwhile, Botswana is paying the price for its heavy reliance on diamond exports. The country recently secured a $300 million loan from the African Development Bank to help address financial gaps, as the budget deficit may widen beyond 7.5% of GDP.
So far, Botswana has maintained its investment-grade rating (a rarity in Africa), but Moody's <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bankofbotswana.bw/sites/default/files/press-release-files/PRESS%20RELEASE%20-%20MOODY%E2%80%99S%20AFFIRMS%20BOTSWANA%E2%80%99S%20SOVEREIGN%20CREDIT%20RATINGS%20-%204%20APRIL%202025.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">revised the long-term outlook</a> to negative, citing its reliance on the diamond sector.
Still, officials say financing a bid for De Beers isn't the issue. "The money is not a problem," Kenewendo said, though no specifics were offered.
Anglo responded with a carefully worded statement: "As our long-standing partner, we are of course, engaging the government of the Republic of Botswana on a regular basis and at all appropriate stages of our process."
The sale process comes just weeks after Anglo successfully <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/25/05/45657243/worlds-largest-platinum-miner-debuts-into-tight-supply-soaring-prices" rel="noreferrer noopener">spun off its platinum unit</a> into a standalone company, Valterra Platinum (OTCPK: AGPPF).&nbsp;

Shares of iron ore stocks are trading higher after iron ore prices rebounded above $100.

Iron ore prices have rebounded above $100 for the first time since February. Renewed optimism about China's economic resilience and the announcement of construction of the world's largest hydropower dam drove momentum of the futures market in Singapore.
Yet, some analysts believe the rally is unsustainable given the market dynamics and healthy <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/iron-ore" rel="noreferrer noopener">capacity increases from key producers</a>.
In a note cited <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-07-16/iron-ore-tops-100-for-first-time-since-may-on-china-sentiment" rel="noreferrer noopener">by</a> Bloomberg, Citi strategists, including Shreyas Madabushi, warned that "prices are currently above market fundamentals," suggesting a more modest and gradual decline in steel output rather than an aggressive contraction.
Meanwhile, Rio Tinto (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIO#NYSE">RIO</a>) has fast-tracked its timeline for shipments from the massive Simandou iron ore mine in Guinea. The firm expects to ship 0.5 to 1 million tons this November.
While the monumental project could deliver as much as 120 million tons annually, the ramp-up should remain gradual.
RBC analysts forecast output will reach just 12 million tons in 2026 and not top 48 million until 2028.
RIO's rival BHP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BHP#NYSE">BHP</a>) reported a 14% quarter-on-quarter jump in Q4 iron ore production to 70.3 million tons, helping push annual output to a record 290 million tons.
While oversupply looms, official Chinese economic data indicate strong demand, further supported by Premier Li Quiang's Monday announcement.
Quiang broke news on construction of the world's largest hydropower dam on the Yarlung Tsangpo River. The dam, which is expected to exceed the Three Gorges Dam by at least a factor of three, is expected to drive significant demand for construction-grade steel.
Per China Briefing's <a target="_blank" href="https://www.china-briefing.com/news/chinas-economy-in-h1-2025-gdp-trade-and-fdi-highlights/" rel="noreferrer noopener">report</a>, GDP rose 5.3% year-on-year in the first half of 2025, with industrial output up 6.4%, services growing 5.5%, and retail sales up 5.0%. Fixed asset investment rose 2.8%, led by manufacturing, and disposable income grew 5.4% in real terms. National Bureau of Statistics Deputy Head Sheng Laiyun called the results a "hard-won achievement" amid global volatility.
Former Australian Ambassador to China Geoff Raby noted that Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's latest visit to China provides an opportunity.
"Although China's growth in demand for Australian iron ore is tapering off, the absolute volume we sell is so large that even a small uptick in demand will lead to tremendous increases in volume," Raby <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuBsZheeGB8" rel="noreferrer noopener">told</a> ABC. "It's a two-way relationship," he added, arguing that China's pivot to green steel is not a threat, but a future opportunity for Australian producers.
"We have massive potential in terms of renewable energy. Ross Garnaut has written about this on numerous occasions in books, and he talks about Australia being the energy superpower of the future because of this very reason."
Raby also clarified that Australia must balance its engagement with China against global pressures, especially from the U.S.
"The Prime Minister has stuck to our strong commitment to free trade, and has not gone down the path of retaliatory tariffs. So, I think that puts us in a very strong position," he said.

China-Led Rally Sends Iron Ore Over $100 Despite Looming Oversupply

A leading <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mining">global miner</a>, BHP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BHP#NYSE">BHP</a>), has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with FinDreams Battery Co., a subsidiary of the Chinese EV and battery manufacturer BYD Group (OTCPK: BYDDF).
The partnership, <a href="https://www.bhp.com/news/media-centre/releases/2025/07/bhp-explores-opportunities-with-byd-in-battery-electrification">announced today</a>, will help the electrification of BHP's operations. The two parties will work on innovative battery-powered solutions for heavy mining machinery, light vehicle fleets, and the essential charging infrastructure, all aimed at helping BHP achieve its goal of lowering carbon emissions.
"This relationship is a further step towards BHP meeting our decarbonisation ambitions for our operations and helping to drive transformative change within the global resources industry," said Rashpal Bhatti, BHP's Group Procurement Officer. "BYD is at the cutting edge of battery innovation, and by working together, we can help shape a more productive and sustainable future for mining."
The partnership will help BHP achieve its long-term net-zero operational emission target by 2050, as well as its medium-term goal of reducing emissions by at least 30% (compared to 2020) by 2030. Electrification is a lucrative proposal for miners since fossil fuel price volatility can notably influence their cost of operations. However, this shift brings along challenges in energy and infrastructure.
McKinsey's <a href="https://www.mckinsey.com/industries/metals-and-mining/our-insights/electrifying-mines-could-double-their-electricity-demand">research</a> estimates that electrifying the mobile fleet in the global iron ore sector alone could lead to a surge in electricity demand by 20 to 30 terawatt-hours, more than doubling consumption at many sites, driving significant capital investments.&nbsp; Per their estimates, the power infrastructure for just the iron ore mining industry could cost anywhere from $30 to $45 billion. Mines would have to upgrade grid connections, install substations, and expand renewable energy generation.
Yet, not everything falls within the mining industry's control. The technological development of batteries will play an important role in this endeavor. To support intensive use in mining operations, batteries need to be of larger scale, with higher density and faster charge rate – else the industry risks compromising productivity.
BHP's rival Fortescue Metals provided some orientation with their large-scale <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/09/41021967/fortescue-announces-2-8b-electrification-deal-chairman-claims-future-is-zero-emissions">electrification effort</a> in 2024. A $2.8 billion order was for 475 zero-emission machines, including 360 battery-electric haul trucks. Despite its ambitions to reach net-zero by 2030, Fortescue had to cut 700 jobs and pause some <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/07/39836855/fortescue-delays-green-hydrogen-ambitions-reaffirms-commitment-to-future-projects">green hydrogen investments</a> amid high energy costs and falling iron ore prices.
Yet at 4 times the market cap, BHP is a much larger player, with the capacity to absorb such capex. Still, producing cleaner commodities will require not only strategic partnerships but also regulatory clarity and technological breakthroughs.

BHP Taps China's Battery Leaders For Green Mining Future

President Donald Trump announced that the United States will impose a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/25/07/46322995/trump-copper-tariff-mining-stocks" rel="noreferrer noopener">50% tariff on all copper</a> imports starting August 1. The decision threatens to disrupt a global supply chain for one of the key inputs for the American industry and a crucial commodity for the green technology transition.
The White House laid the groundwork for this decision as early as February 25, warning of national security risks associated with America's growing dependence on foreign copper.
The United States faces significant vulnerabilities in the copper supply chain, with increasing reliance on foreign sources for mined, smelted, and refined copper," the administration <a target="_blank" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/02/addressing-the-threat-to-nationalsecurity-from-imports-of-copper/" rel="noreferrer noopener">stated</a>.
Despite having domestic copper reserves, the U.S. remains a net importer because of its underdeveloped smelting and refining capacity. Over half of global smelting is controlled by a single foreign producer, which Washington sees as a strategic threat.
Since February, U.S. copper imports have surged as traders scrambled to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/guidance/25/03/44271394/goldman-sachs-sees-copper-imports-increasing-tariffs-as-fcx-positions-to-benefit" rel="noreferrer noopener">beat the tariff deadline</a>. Between January and April 2025, the U.S. imported 461,000 tons of copper, 232,000 tons more than in the same period last year.
On the London Metal Exchange, this frenzy drained inventories and drove up prices. Still, spreads have collapsed recently as the arbitrage window closes and traders recognize that shipments now risk arriving after the tariff has taken effect.
Following the cabinet meeting, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, who led the investigation, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wII6xHXZfQ" rel="noreferrer noopener">confirmed</a> the tariff's timeline to CNBC.
"Copper is finished. We're done with our study. We've handed the study over to the president… he has the ability… to set the market tariff for copper." He added that the levy is "likely to be put in place end of July — maybe August 1," he said.
Chile, home to BHP's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BHP#NYSE">BHP</a>) Escondida, the largest global copper mine, has gone on alert. State-owned miner Codelco, which exported roughly $5.72 billion worth of copper to the U.S. in 2024—less than 7% of its total—has requested clarity.
"What we need to do is understand what this is about. What products are affected?" Codelco chairman Maximo Pacheco <a target="_blank" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/worlds-top-copper-producer-chile-wait-and-see-mode-after-trump-tariff-bombshell-2025-07-08/" rel="noreferrer noopener">told</a> Reuters, pointing to the need to determine the specific magnitude of tariffs.
"I think it's premature to comment." Chile's government said it has yet to receive formal notice from the U.S.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum reflected on the matter at a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITNJC2rBvKg" rel="noreferrer noopener">press conference</a>, stating, "Copper is needed in many places around the world, so there are some options there." Despite its proximity, Mexico's copper exports to the U.S. pale in comparison to those of Chile or Canada.
Meanwhile, Australia has emerged as a potential beneficiary. With less than 1% of its copper exports headed to the U.S., the country is relatively insulated from the immediate impact.
"These measures disrupt global trade&#8230; The right response is not to raise barriers," Minerals Council of Australia CEO Tania Constable <a target="_blank" href="https://minerals.org.au/resources/mca-statement-on-proposed-copper-tariffs/" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> in a statement.
Australia is projected to grow copper exports to 1 million tons by 2026/27, reinforcing its status as a trusted, low-risk supplier.
Price Watch: Southern Copper (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCCO#NYSE">SCCO</a>), the largest publicly traded copper miner, is up 10.29% year-to-date.

Trump's Copper Tariff Echoes Through Global Mining Tunnels

A surprise 50% import tariff on copper announced by President Donald Trump on Tuesday sent the red metal into a frenzy, driving prices to a historic high of $5.90 per pound as investors rushed to price <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46305321/copper-price-surges-trump-tariffs-stocks-july-2025">in potential supply constraints.</a>
U.S.-based copper stocks Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCX#NASDAQ">FCX</a>) and Southern Copper Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCCO#NYSE">SCCO</a>) stand to post outsized gains if copper prices continue climbing.
While the measure appeared unplanned, the short implementation timeline—expected before the end of July or early August—has made it increasingly likely that the 50% rate will take effect, according to Goldman Sachs analyst Eoin Dinsmore.
"We change our baseline to a 50% tariff on U.S. copper imports from 25% previously," Dinsmore said in a note Wednesday. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Driving The Copper Price Surge?</h2>
The shock tariff announcement comes amid already tight global copper supplies. 
Goldman Sachs maintained its December 2025 London Metal Exchange (LME) copper forecast at $9,700 per metric ton, but said the odds of prices exceeding $10,000 in the third quarter have diminished.
Still, with global supply lagging demand and the U.S. set to experience a copper stock drawdown, prices are likely to remain elevated for months, according to the bank.
&#8220;We expect a further acceleration in shipments into the U.S. in the coming weeks,&#8221; Dinsmore said, as traders rush to import ahead of tariff implementation.
Steel and aluminum tariffs were also raised to 50% in June, with markets pricing in 80% of that move—providing a precedent for copper to follow a similar pricing trajectory.
Copper's 13% advance on Tuesday not only marked its largest single-day rally on record, but also lifted prices to fresh all-time highs, said LPL Financial's chief technical strategist Adam Turnquist. While the metal has since pared some gains, it still remains above key support at $5.22 per pound.
"The surging demand for U.S. copper ahead of the looming tariffs has pushed domestic prices to a +25% premium over copper trading at the London Metal Exchange (LME)," Turnquist said. 
At the same time, LME inventories have been significantly depleted, raising concerns about a global supply shortage outside the U.S.
He added that rising copper prices could significantly affect copper-intensive sectors such as building construction, equipment manufacturing, electric vehicles and electronic products. 
"The widespread use of copper might also fuel inflation concerns," Turnquist said.

Freeport is the top U.S. copper equity play and holds a nearly 9% weighting in the iShares Copper and Metals Mining ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ICOP#NYSE">ICOP</a>).
Southern Copper Corp. could another key beneficiary, with the stock returning 10.1% year-to-date.
Globally, copper production is heavily concentrated in Latin American countries like Chile and Peru—home to some of the world's largest deposits. 
This puts additional focus on companies such as Grupo México S.A.B. de C.V (OTCPK: GMBXF)., the parent of Southern Copper, and BHP Group Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BHP#NYSE">BHP</a>), which has significant operations in Chile's Escondida mine, the world's largest copper mine.
Other global players include First Quantum Minerals Ltd, Antofagasta plc (OTCPK: ANFGF), focused on Chilean mining, and Evolution Mining Ltd. (OTCPK: CAHPF), an Australian company diversifying into copper alongside its core gold assets.

Trump's 50% Copper Tariff Shocks Markets—These Stocks Are Winning Big

CENX

KALU

Shares of metals stocks are trading lower after President Trump announced tariffs on multiple countries.

Chile's Congress has passed a long-awaited mining regulation reform to cut permitting times drastically. The reform is expected to boost investor confidence in the world's top copper producer and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/lithium" rel="noreferrer noopener">second-largest lithium supplier</a>.
The legislation, passed with 93 votes in favor, 27 against, and 17 abstentions, amends over 40 sectoral laws and now awaits President Gabriel Boric's signature to become law.
"This will allow us to substantially reduce permitting times while maintaining our regulatory rigour," Economy Minister Nicolás Grau said after the vote, according <a target="_blank" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/chiles-congress-approves-law-speed-up-permitting-process-investment-projects-2025-07-01/" rel="noreferrer noopener">to</a> Reuters.
The reform is expected to reduce permitting timelines by 30% to 70%, addressing long-standing complaints from the mining and renewable energy industries that permitting delays stifle billions of dollars in investment.
Before the reform, major mining projects often waited more than a decade for approval. For example, the average permit process in Chile can last up to 12 years, one of the longest globally.
The new legislation institutionalizes a digital one-stop permitting platform, "SUPER," which allows end-to-end case tracking and service interoperability. It also establishes a new coordinating body, the Sectoral Authorizations and Investment Office, to modernize permitting procedures.
Despite the breakthrough, challenges remain. Jorge Riesco, president of Chile's National Mining Society (<a target="_blank" href="https://www.sonami.cl/v2/noticias/presidente-de-sonami-por-aprobacion-de-ley-marco-de-permisos-sectoriales-valoramos-el-esfuerzo-del-ejecutivo/" rel="noreferrer noopener">SONAMI</a>), called the reform "a step in the right direction" but stressed that "more work is needed" to modernize Chile's permitting framework fully.
When Gabriel Boric assumed the presidency in 2022, he pledged to bolster environmental protections and reverse the deregulation trends set by his predecessor, Sebastián Piñera.
A <a target="_blank" href="https://www.icij.org/investigations/pandora-papers/chile-rejects-dominga-mining-project-a-longtime-flashpoint-for-environmental-and-political-controversy/" rel="noreferrer noopener">key scandal</a> related to Piñera's sale of his stake in the controversial Dominga project—reportedly contingent on regulatory favors—had a significant impact on the public debate regarding mining oversight. Boric ran on a platform critical of unchecked extractivism, and while he opposes projects like the Dominga, his government is not anti-mining.
To balance environmental protection and growth, Boric introduced the "<a target="_blank" href="https://www.sea.gob.cl/en/noticias/presidente-de-la-republica-gabriel-boric-presenta-dos-proyectos-de-ley-para-mejorar-la" rel="noreferrer noopener">Environmental Evaluation 2.0</a>" plan—a separate but complementary reform to streamline environmental assessments. The proposal has stirred up criticism from both sides of the aisle. Industry groups argue that it gives courts too much power to delay projects, while environmental NGOs insist it caters to big economic interests.&nbsp;
Environmental issues remain a significant challenge. In 2022, BHP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BHP#NYSE">BHP</a>) was fined $8.2 million for over-extracting water in the sensitive Atacama region, which is home to the massive Escondida copper mine.
To address this, innovation in extraction methods—especially those related to lithium—is gaining attention. Technologies like Direct Lithium Extraction are being promoted to reduce water consumption and environmental degradation.&nbsp;
According to Chile's Constituent Assembly's 2022 decision, Boric is ineligible to run for reelection in 2026. Still, the policies launched during his term will direct the development of one of the key mining countries in the ongoing commodity cycle.

Argus Research Downgrades BHP Group to Hold

Anglo American (OTCQX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAUKD#OTCQX">AAUKD</a>) is nearing the start of a formal sales process for its diamond unit, De Beers. The firm has owned the brand since 2011, but a comprehensive restructuring following a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/05/39068033/time-runs-out-for-bhp-deal-49-billion-acquisition-of-anglo-american-proves-too-complex-to-solve" rel="noreferrer noopener">failed $49 billion bid</a> from BHP last year has led the firm to focus on other commodities.
According <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-06-05/de-beers-said-to-draw-interest-from-ex-ceos-as-anglo-starts-sale" rel="noreferrer noopener">to</a> Bloomberg, three interested bidders are for the 136-year-old diamond brand, including former De Beers CEOs Gareth Penny and Bruce Cleaver and Australian mining executive Michael O'Keeffe.
Penny, who led De Beers during the 2008 financial crisis, now chairs Ninety One (OTCPK: NINTF), an investment firm managing over $175 billion in assets. Cleaver, who stepped down as De Beers CEO in 2023, currently chairs Gemfields (OTCPK: PLLHF), a gemstone miner focused on emeralds and rubies.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/45788737">Moon May Contain $1 Trillion Worth Of Precious Metals, Could Spark Global Space Mining Race</a>
Meanwhile, O'Keeffe is a long-time resource investor and the chairman of Burgundy Diamond Mines (OTCPK: BDMMF), the owner of Canada's Ekati mine, and a former head of Riversdale Mining, which he sold to Rio Tinto for $3.7 billion in 2011.
Anglo-American insiders say the company favors a sale over a demerger or an initial public offering, although all options remain on the table, depending on market conditions.
CEO Duncan Wanblad has stated that the group will be patient in avoiding destroying value. Over the past two years, the diamond sector's volatility has pushed Anglo to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/guidance/25/02/43523263/debeers-slashes-production-guidance-as-anglo-american-considers-another-goodwill-impairment" rel="noreferrer noopener">write down De Beers' valuation</a> to $4.1 billion — a $4.5 billion drop in just over a year.
The sale of De Beers would finalize Wanblad's broader plan to refocus Anglo on core assets. In recent months, the company has agreed to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/11/41739206/anglo-american-offloads-1-1-billion-coal-stake-proceeds-with-restructuring" rel="noreferrer noopener">divest its coal</a> and nickel operations and completed the spin-off of its platinum business, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/25/05/45657243/worlds-largest-platinum-miner-debuts-into-tight-supply-soaring-prices" rel="noreferrer noopener">rebranded as </a><a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities/25/05/45657243/worlds-largest-platinum-miner-debuts-into-tight-supply-soaring-prices" rel="noreferrer noopener">Valterra</a>.
But while Anglo resets, the diamond market itself is in crisis. A <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38155531/prada-gucci-louis-vuitton-brace-for-sales-slump-as-chinas-economic-turbulence-hits-luxury-market" rel="noreferrer noopener">collapse in Chinese luxury demand</a>, growing consumer preference for lab-grown stones, and broader questions over the cultural relevance of natural diamonds have all eroded market fundamentals.
In Q1 2025, De Beers reported a 44% decline in revenue and now holds $2 billion of unsold inventory.
Sanctions on Russian rival Alrosa, layoffs at Lucapa and Koidu, and declining sales at Petra Diamonds show the poor state of the market. Even De Beers recently shut down its Lightbox lab-grown diamond brand, looking to return to its roots and find value in natural stones.

Anglo Nears De Beers Sale As Three Potential Buyers Emerge

The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected an appeal by Apache Stronghold to block the Resolution Copper mine project in Arizona.
The decision allows federal authorities to hand over Oak Flat, a sacred site to the San Carlos Apache tribe, to mining firms Rio Tinto (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIO#NYSE">RIO</a>) and BHP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BHP#NYSE">BHP</a>).
The site lies within the Tonto National Forest and contains one of the world's largest <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/copper" rel="noreferrer noopener">undeveloped copper deposits</a>.
The Resolution Copper project is a joint venture between Rio Tinto, which holds 55% and operates the mine, and BHP, which owns the remaining 45%.
The companies have invested over $2 billion in the project, which contains nearly 27 million tons, enough to supply up to 25% of the U.S.'s annual copper demand for decades. The mine can potentially become the largest of its kind in North America.
Copper's role in clean energy technology has made it a highly sought-after commodity. With global demand expected to outpace supply, projects like Resolution have garnered interest from industry and government.
However, industrial ambition clashes with longstanding cultural and spiritual Apache values as the mine would create a crater two miles wide and over 1,000 feet deep, destroying the worship site.
Earlier this month, U.S. District Judge Steven Logan issued a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45343504/judge-halts-arizona-land-transfer-to-rio-tinto-citing-native-appeal" rel="noreferrer noopener">temporary injunction</a> halting the land swap pending the Supreme Court's decision. Now that the court has declined to hear the appeal, the U.S. Forest Service is expected to finalize the environmental impact statement and proceed with the transfer by June 16.
Following standard practice, the court's majority did not explain the denial, but two justices dissented.
Justice Neil Gorsuch, joined in dissent by Justice Clarence Thomas, condemned the court's refusal to intervene. "Faced with the government's plan to destroy an ancient site of tribal worship, we owe the Apaches no less," Gorsuch wrote, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/05/27/supreme-court-oak-flat-western-apaches-copper-mine/" rel="noreferrer noopener">per</a> the Washington Post.
"They may live far from Washington, D.C., and their history and religious practices may be unfamiliar to many. But that should make no difference," he noted, criticizing the decision as one that could reverberate for generations.
Mila Besich, the Democrat mayor of Superior, Arizona, which lies closest to the project, called the decision a breakthrough. "We've been waiting on this ruling for a very long time," she said. "For Superior and all of Arizona, this project will be an economic boon."

BHP Group shares are trading higher after a judge blocked an Arizona land transfer to Rio Tinto.

U.S. District Judge Steven Logan has temporarily blocked the controversial transfer of federal land in Arizona to mining firms Rio Tinto (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIO#NYSE">RIO</a>) and BHP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BHP#NYSE">BHP</a>). Logan cited the need for the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/u-s-supreme-court" rel="noreferrer noopener">U.S. Supreme Court</a> to deliberate on an appeal filed by Native American groups opposing the project.
The decision halts progress on the Resolution Copper project, a planned large-scale underground copper mine near Superior, Arizona. The project sits atop more than 40 billion pounds (18.1 million metric tons) of copper, a metal critical to electric vehicles and clean energy infrastructure. However, it also lies beneath Oak Flat, a site sacred to the San Carlos Apache people.
In an 18-page ruling, Judge Logan clarified the risk of irreparable harm to Apache religious rights if the land transfer were permitted before the Supreme Court makes its decision.
"It is abundantly clear that the balance of equities tips sharply in [Apache Stronghold's] favor," he wrote, according to Reuters. "They have established a likelihood of irreparable harm should the transfer proceed."
The project can potentially produce over 25% of anticipated domestic copper demand for several decades, but it would create a 3-kilometer-wide, 300-meter-deep crater, effectively destroying the Oak Flat site.
Logan dismissed Rio's arguments that their $2.7 billion investment and monthly maintenance costs of $11 million warranted urgency, stating these were a "voluntary choice."
The project's legal history is complex. Though Congress and then-President Barack Obama approved the land swap enabling the project in 2014, President Donald Trump moved to expedite the land transfer during his first term. President Joe Biden reversed that action, pending further court review. Yet Trump recently restarted the process, aiming for a final transfer by June 16, driving the emergency request that led to Logan's ruling.
If built, Resolution would be one of Rio Tinto's most significant future copper assets, offering decades of domestic supply at a time when the U.S. seeks to <a target="_blank" href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/02/43492445/critical-metal-demand-to-triple-by-2030-but-demographics-pose-risks" rel="noreferrer noopener">reduce reliance on mineral imports</a>. However, the project faces the same kind of local backlash that led to the halt of Rio Tinto's Jadar lithium project in Serbia.
Rio Tinto has been mitigating development risk through strategic partnerships. Today, it <a target="_blank" href="https://www.riotinto.com/en/news/releases/2025/rio-tinto-and-sumitomo-metal-mining-sign-definitive-agreement-for-winu-project-joint-venture" rel="noreferrer noopener">announced</a> a joint venture with Japan's Sumitomo Metal Mining to develop the Winu copper and gold project in Western Australia. Under the deal, Sumitomo will pay up to $430.4 million for a 30% stake, with $195 million upfront and further payments based on milestones.

Why It's Important: Members of Congress are allowed to buy and sell stocks as long as they properly disclose the transaction.
The process has drawn scrutiny from the public and retail investors as members of Congress could have inside information and time their trades accordingly. Committee assignments in particular, often draw red flags from investors.
Greene serves on the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability and the House Committee on Homeland Security with several subcommittee appointments. The congresswoman's past trade in technology and cybersecurity stocks has drawn attention with her role within Homeland Security.
Greene&#8217;s past trades of Palantir Technologies and a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44255172/marjorie-taylor-greene-buys-more-bitcoin-etf-shares-ahead-of-trumps-strategic-reserve-executive-order"> Bitcoin ETF </a>have drawn criticism along with the timing of her trades, as she is a close ally to President Donald Trump. 
When asked previously about buying stocks earlier this year that soared days later after Trump announced a pause to tariffs, Greene<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip"> brushed aside the criticism.</a>
&#8220;I think that criticism is laughable. President Trump has been talking about tariffs for decades,&#8221; Greene told reporters when asked about the trades at a recent town hall event in Georgia in a clip <a href="https://x.com/unusual_whales/status/1912456434081480777" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">shared </a>by Unusual Whales. The congresswoman used the opportunity to boast about her stock performance, which ranked her as one of the top trading members of Congress in 2024.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t place my buys and sells," Greene said, citing an agreement she has with her portfolio manager, who handles all the buying and selling of stocks. &#8220;He did a great job. Guess what he did. He bought the dip. And that&#8217;s what anybody that has financial sense does."
Greene also said her portfolio manager did not have inside information, everything was public and a potential tariff pause wasn&#8217;t a secret.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) has reintroduced legislation that would ban members of Congress from trading or holding individual stocks.
The bill is known as the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments Act, or PELOSI Act based on the first letter of each of the main words. The name takes aim at the congresswoman and former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).  
&#8220;Members of Congress should be fighting for the people they were elected to serve — not day trading at the expense of their constituents,&#8221; Hawley&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hawley.senate.gov/hawley-reintroduces-pelosi-act-to-ban-congress-from-trading-stocks/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a>. &#8220;Americans have seen politician after politician turn a profit using information not available to the general public.&#8221;
Hawley said the bill will help &#8220;restore Americans&#8217; trust in our nation&#8217;s legislative body.&#8221;
Hawley&#8217;s bill is being reintroduced as President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;<a href="https://time.com/7280114/donald-trump-2025-interview-transcript/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said&nbsp;</a>he would support such a ban.
&#8220;Well, I watched Nancy Pelosi get rich through insider information, and I would be okay with it. If they send it to me, I would do it,&#8221; Trump told TIME.
Trump said he would sign the ban if the bill passes Congress.
While Pelosi makes headlines for her trades, it&#8217;s important to remember that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;it is both Republican</a>&nbsp;and Democratic members of Congress who are profiting from buying and selling stocks and options while in office, with some trades coming with questionable timing or having a connection to committees they serve on.
In 2024, a list of the top-performing traders in Congress included six Republicans and four Democrats.
