JAKARTA, Feb 14 (Reuters) - Copper miner PT Freeport
Indonesia has reduced its copper ore mining to 60% capacity due
to rising stockpiles, Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry
senior official Tri Winarno said on Friday.
Freeport is currently repairing its new smelter following a
fire in October and has asked for an export permit extension.
Tri said there is no decision yet on Freeport's request.
Freeport could not be immediately reached for comment.
