• Pantheon reaches 33% recycled copper feed (metaltechnews.com) — Pantheon Electric’s Leetsdale mill now anchors a major push to use recycled copper, with every product from the facility made from scrap and contributing to 33% recycled feedstock companywide. For Leetsdale residents, that means a locally based industrial operation positioned as a key domestic supplier amid rising global copper demand and energy concerns, potentially supporting jobs and long-term investment in the community.
