Wanbao (Burma) Copper Hit A New High In Its Yield

Wanbao Mining (Burma) Copper Co., Ltd. reached new heights in July, 2018, with monthly yield of cathode copper of over 10000 tons, a new yield record since its commissioning. This indicates a big steady step to the goal of annual cathode copper yield of 100 thousand tons.

Since it was put into operation, Burma Copper has been actively coordinating all production units, auxiliary production departments and functional departments to carry out related work around central goal. Ore drawing is of considerable importance. In order to maintain mining and stripping ability and ensure that ores heap up, the mining mill has been taking great pains to upgrade equipment capacity and make more investment in repairing through enhancing spare part inventory management. Furthermore, the mining mill has also carried out related maintenance work on mine road and tried to keep the serviceability rate of drilling machine, digging machine and ore card at the high rate of 83%; copper leaching rate and cathode copper is of fundamental importance. So starting with elevating copper leaching rate of storage yard and balancing process indicators, smelter has made various efforts to greatly increase copper leaching rate and speed of storage yard. Average copper leaching rate of covered copper heap is over 70% and qualified liquid copper concentration stays at 4-6g/L; Yield of cathode copper has been making steady progress month by month. Through the joint efforts of all departments, it just took Burma Copper half a year to achieve 10000 tons of cathode copper yield in July from 5677 tons in January.

Wanbao Burma Copper will keep closely following the goal of annual cathode copper yield of 100 thousand tons and try to make it possible to realize it 1 year ahead. compound annual growth rate of up to 46%.
