If Glencore were to merge with Teck, the new entity "MetalsCo" would produce 1,436,000 tonnes of copper per year.
That would make it the world's third-largest copper producer, trailing only Freeport-McMoRan and Codelco.
To provide some perspective, 1.44 million tonnes of copper is equivalent to a solid copper cuboid with a volume of roughly 160,000 cubic meters as visualized below.
Its value, based on the current copper price, would be around 12.7 billion USD.
