Gecamines is offering copper from CMOC’s giant Tenke Fungurume mine, in which it holds a 20% interest, Bloomberg sources said.

The ongoing 2024 drill program aims to expand upon and better define these mineralized zones.

The Kipushi zinc mine produced its first concentrate on June 14, Ivanhoe said Tuesday.

Kipushi has set its 2024 production guidance at between 100,000 and 140,000 tonnes of zinc in concentrate.

Panama President Jose Raul Mulino made the announcement of an environmental audit in his first address as the head of the government.

The company expects copper sales to be 5% below April 2024 guidance of 975 million pounds.

Copper rose for a third session, extending its rebound from a two-month low.

India is also in discussions with Australia for critical minerals.
