Report summary
Cuajone operates an open pit mine and a conventional 90 kt/d ore copper-moly concentrator. The concentrate production is treated in the Ilo smelter and anodes are treated in the Ilo refinery. As part of our methodology the mine-mill analysis is done in an integrated way. Oxide ore mined at Cuajone is crushed and leached with the PLS generated pumped to the SxEw plant at Toquepala. Wood Mackenzie’s asset reports are built from the bottom up, incorporating a number of granular data metrics to ultimately produce our industry standard cash operating costs. This report contains a detailed asset note giving you a holistic view of the asset, including an operational overview through to a timeline of events from inception to now. This qualitative analysis is supplemented by the associated Excel download which enables interrogation of a whole series of cost and production metrics over the life of the asset.
