Orion Minerals flags cost saving at Prieska

Dual-listed copper developer Orion Minerals has flagged a possible A$15-million in cost savings at its Prieska copper/zinc project, in South Africa, after identifying two new 3 600 kW mills that can be incorporated at the project. The new mills are immediately available at a significant discount to similar mills, which would only be available from manufacturers on long order, the ASX- and JSE-listed company said on Tuesday.
