Mexican copper miner Grupo Mexico posted second-quarter net profit of $452m Monday, down 14% versus the same period a year ago, with copper output down from a long-running strike.
The company reported sales of $1.758bn, down from $2.089bn last year, as well as a 22% drop in EBITDA to $960m.
A strike at the company's largest copper pit, the giant Cananea mine, has dragged on for a full year, cutting into production of the red metal, the company's primary product.
