Abstract
The auto industry is facing significantly tighter supply conditions and greater market instability for copper, lead and zinc in the Eighties. Lack of past investment in new mines, increased political intervention in the mining industry, the growing import dependence of the United States and greater reliance on terminal commodity markets will further compound the difficult purchasing environment.
