We look at what this reddish-gold coloured metal is used for and why it’s so critical. 

Copper is considered a base metal that is ductile, malleable, and an effective conductor of heat and electricity. It is ranked the third-most-consumed industrial metal in the world after iron and aluminium and is 100% recyclable. 

You’ll find copper in electrical wiring in household appliances, cars, jewellery, plumbing and industrial machinery – just to name a few. We even need 1.2 milligrams of copper daily to help enzymes transfer energy inside our cells. 

Mining for a sustainable future 

Our copper projects form a key part of our strategy to diversify commodities and position our business to be at the forefront of sustainable mining. 

We currently operate on copper projects across our regions, including: 

• Anthill Project in Queensland, Australia

• Encuentro Oxides Project in Chile 

• Oyu Tolgoi Boxcut and Decline Project in Mongolia 

• Prominent Hill in South Australia
