Abstract
Abstract This paper presents a historical analysis of the evolution of the energy and metals consumption and production in less developed countries (LDCs), encompassing a period of 25 years (1965–90), focusing specially on Latin America and on Brazil. The period permits an evaluation of the impact of the energy crisis on patterns of economic growth, associated to energy and metal production profiles in developing and developed countries. This complex relationship is evaluated, using aluminium, copper and crude steel consumption and production profiles. This paper was presented to the First International Symposium on Mining & Development, July 1995, Campinas, Brazil.
