SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts proposes to stop publishing Japan delivered copper prices

Platts is proposing to discontinue publication of daily Japanese copper cathode domestic delivered prices, which are a republication of JX Nippon Mining & Metals' domestic copper list prices available on the company's website. The prices -- Japan delivered copper cathode (current month), symbol MMALK00, and Japan delivered copper cathode (two months out) MMALL00, as well as the associated averages of these prices -- would cease to publish in Platts Metals Daily, Platts Metals Alert and Platts Metals Week after September 30, 2016. Please send any feedback on the proposal by May 31 to Mayumi Watanabe, Mayumi.watanabe@platts.com, with a CC to pricemethodology@platts.com. For written comments, please provide a clear indication if comments are not intended for publication by Platts for public viewing. Platts will consider all comments received and will make comments not marked as confidential available upon request.
