            <description><![CDATA[LONDON – Global oil supply and demand will fall further than previously thought this year, the International Energy Agency said on Friday, as a lack of progress in ending the Iran war delays the return of normal Middle East flows into 2027 and sends fuel prices soaring. An increase in attacks on oil tankers in Middle East shipping routes has helped send crude prices towards $110 a barrel this week for the first time since May. But this hike is overshadowed by the surging price of fuels such as diesel, which have hit record highs.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[The steep premium paid for aluminium in the US will not drop significantly even if Washington halves the tariffs on metal from neighboring Canada, because imports from other countries will still be needed, Alcoa's finance chief said on Thursday.

The price US consumers pay on top of the London Metal Exchange benchmark for physical aluminium, known as the Midwest premium, is high at $1.09/lb, or $2 403 a ton, but has eased from a record $1.19 in June on hopes the 50% import tariff could be halved for Canadian material.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Mineral processing equipment specialist Metso has launched a breakthrough innovation in coarse particle flotation, Sampo Cell, that enhances recovery of coarse particles without compromising fine particle recovery, helping mining companies improve the efficiency, profitability, and sustainability of their operations. 

“Mining companies are under increasing pressure to process more complex ores, improve recovery and reduce their environmental footprint. The Sampo Cell represents a significant leap forward in flotation technology. By expanding the recoverable particle size range and simplifying coarse particle flotation, customers can unlock additional value from existing operations,” says Metso separation senior VP Teemu Kaarniemi. ]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ASX- and TSX-listed Westgold has updated its three-year production outlook, aiming to increase groupwide production from between 385 000 and 425 000 oz in the 2027 financial year to between 460 000 and 510 000 oz in the 2029 financial year.

The plan is underpinned by increased ore availability at the Murchison operation and expansions of the Cue and Meekatharra processing hubs. These investments will not only enable higher production but improve mill utilisation and reduce all-in sustaining costs to between A$2 640/oz and A$3 000/oz by the 2029 financial year. ]]></description>
