The global mining industry is bracing for its biggest shake-up in more than a decade. The world's number one mining company BHP Group has proposed a takeover of Anglo American, valuing the London-based company at nearly $39 billion. Anglo American investors will receive £25.08 ($31) per share. They will also get shares in Anglo American Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore. BHP's bid is a huge bet on copper, which analysts said may fuel a scramble for mining assets. Copper prices hit a two-year high earlier this week. Olly Barratt reports.
