Asset Report
San Nicolas copper mine project
Report summary
San Nicolas is planned to be operated through an open pit feeding a conventional flotation plant to produce zinc and copper concentrates. The decision to proceed is to be largely based on economics relating to the zinc price and Teck Resources’ requirement for zinc or zinc concentrate. The shown start-up date of 2023 is speculative at best.
