Lundin Mining meets guidance at all operations

Canada-headquartered Lundin Mining has achieved its production guidance for all the metals it produces, at all its operations, as the miner prepares for a big jump in production this year.

The miner produced 67 131 t of copper in the fourth quarter, taking total production for the year to 235 498 t, which is in its guidance of 227 000 t to 245 000 t. The Candelaria mine, in Chile, produced 39 221 t in the final quarter, which president and CEO Marie Inkster said on Wednesday was achieved during a time of considerable unrest in the country.
