FINDERS RAMPS UP COPPER CATHODE OUTPUT AT WETAR PROJECT

[CATEGORY: MANUFACTURE]

   

Finders Resources Limited said that over 300 tons of LME Grade A copper cathode has now been stripped from the recently commissioned 25,000 ton per annum (t.p.a.) copper cathode solvent extraction electrowinning (SX-EW) plant in Indonesia's Maluku Province.

The company said in a statement that the rate of copper cathode stripping is continuing to increase as production levels from the SX-EW plant ramps up.

Concurrently, the existing 3,000 t.p.a. copper cathode SX-EW plant continued to perform at capacity during June bringing the combined site total to approximately 550 tons of copper cathode.

Managing Director Barry Cahill commented: "Copper cathode production continues to increase at Wetar following commissioning of our new 25,000 t.p.a. SX-EW plant and further increases are expected in July as our project staff focus on ramping up production. We look forward to providing further progress updates in the coming weeks."
