TSX-listed Ivanhoe Mines and its partners in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) − Zijin Mining Group, Crystal River Global and the country’s government − have welcomed the positive findings of an independent definitive feasibility study (DFS) on the Kakula copper mine project.
This study, together with an updated prefeasibility study (PFS) that includes ore mined from the nearby Kansoko copper mine in addition to ore mined from Kakula, will inform an expanded preliminary economic assessment (PEA) for the development of the copper discoveries made to date at the Kamoa-Kakula project in the Central African Copperbelt of the DRC.
