More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
Phelps Dodge (PD) is glad pennies don't fall from heaven. The world's second-largest copper producer also produces gold, silver, and other minerals. Although PD operates in two other business segments, it is exploring the possible sales of both of its manufacturing units to reduce debt and to concentrate on its mining business. Phelps Dodge Wire and Cable makes magnet wire used in electrical motors; specialty conductors for the aerospace, computer, and automotive industries; and telecommunications cables. Subsidiary Columbian Chemicals is a top producer of carbon black (used in rubber products). After acquiring rival Cyprus Amax, Phelps Dodge trails only Chile's Codelco in world copper production.
