The top copper miner, KGHM KGHM.WA, in Europe anticipates a lower third quarter than the same time last year and may even go so far as to reduce their 2008 forecasts due to a lessening of certain copper products.

KGHM plans to keep its current forecast and revisit in November once they have revealed their quarterly figures.  The company sees their unconsolidated net profit falling from 3.8 billion zlotys in 2007 to 2.9 billion ($1.14 billion) for 2008.
