Freeport Indonesia to process 400,000t of copper concentrate at new smelter
Earlier this month, Freeport obtained an export permit for the rest of the year from the government.
Next month, Oyu Tolgoi, the largest mine in the country and one of the three biggest copper-gold mines in the world, will open, pumping billions of dollars a year into the economy. Vancouver-based Turquoise Hill Resources is one of its owners.
Yet, Oyu Tolgoi only tells part of the story of mining in Mongolia.
