“Copper production for the year amounted to 380 thousand tons (2023 – 403 thousand tons). Despite the increase in the throughput capacity of the factories, an expected decrease in the metal content in the processed ore was noted,” the company said in a statement.
Gold, silver and zinc production also decreased in 2024.
KAZ Minerals processed 6% more ore than in 2023 – 96.5 million tons. Copper sales increased by 2% to 387 thousand tons in 2024, due to the sale of material in transit at the beginning of the year.
