Project Description
The Reko Diq project (the Project ) entails the development of a greenfield open-pit mining operation with processing facilities to produce copper-gold concentrate. The mine includes two open pits, a processing plant, several low-grade ore stockpiles, two waste rock dumps, a tailings storage facility (TSF), a heavy fuel oil power plant and photovoltaic solar plant, and other auxiliary infrastructure. The Project will produce 200-250 kt of copper per year. Reko Diq is one of the world's largest undeveloped copper and gold deposits, with an expected mine life of 40+ years. The sponsors contemplate a possible expansion of the Project, which includes increasing copper production to 400kt per year and building the related infrastructure. It will be one of the largest copper mines globally when fully developed.
