Description:
Minera Spence is engaged in the production of copper cathodes through an open pit operation in northern Chile's Sierra Gorda municipality, Antofagasta region (II). Its high purity copper cathodes are obtained after a process that includes bacterial leaching, solvent extraction and electro-winning, and are exported mainly to China, Italy, and the US. In 2015, the firm submitted an environmental impact study (EIS) to extend the life of its mine via the mining of the sulfide resources located below the current ore body. The project envisions construction and operation of a new concentrator plant with a nominal treatment capacity of 95,000-100,000t/d, and associated infrastructure in order to reach an annual production of 835,000t copper in concentrate and 7,500t molybdenum. Additionally, it considers the construction of a desalination plant to supply approximately 800l/s desalinated water to be used in industrial processes, as well as a 154km pipeline and pumping system, and a 4,000m3 storage tank. Founded in 1979, the company's main shareholders are Rio Algom Limited and Rio Algom Exploration, both subsidiaries of BHP Billiton.
