copper stock, page-55

Roh

The native copper concentrate will still have to be smelted (copper concentrate is smelted to produce anodes, the anodes are then refined (electrowinning) to produce LME grade copper cathode).

I would necessarily be quoting the Cudeco releases verbatim, as just because it is in the public domain doesn't mean it is correct.

However, regardless of what is in the ground or what the copper price is, it is all meaningless until it has been mined, processed and sold and the proceeds have been banked.
