Mining the Americas in 2019 — a forecast

Chinese rules and regulations alongside resistance from competitor Shanghai Futures Exchange have frustrated LME's attempts to expand its network to China.

The specialty miner also reported a record output from its rotary kiln electric furnace projects.

The company produced 89.40 million metric tons of iron ore in the last three months of 2023.

The miner said selling the copper concentrate is the best alternative to generate resources to cover the costs.

The company says that restarting the permitting process is a strategic move to advance the Castle East project to advanced exploration.

The latest drilling results from the Safari Link area represent a near-term opportunity for resource and value addition, Lifezone said.

Madeleine King will be meeting Japan's trade minister Ken Saito, and South Korean trade and energy minister Duk-geun Ahn.

The miner sold two tranches of debt worth a total of $2 billion last week at 230 basis points and 235 points above US Treasuries.

The miner said it was hit by adverse geopolitical risks and postponed furnace repairs, following a drop in production in 2023.
