Select base metals climb on rising demand, global cues

Select copper and brass prices climbed further at the non-ferrous metal market here today due to consistent stockists buying amidst rising demand from industrial users on the back of higher London Metal Exchange (LME) cues.
Meanwhile, tin fell further on stockists selling amid reduced demand from alloy industries.
The industrial metal advanced further at the LME, jumping to its highest in four months as trading began after a two-day break, with signs of economic revival in Asia and the US burnishing the demand outlook for metals.
