Currently, the open-pit mine located 20 km south of Princeton is expected to run until 2033.\nThe project comprises a series of nested pit designs that are “pushbacks” on the existing historical Ingerbelle pit, designed to unlock access to higher-grade mineralization to boost the Copper Mountain mine’s copper production by 90%, according to company material.\nUpon completion, the New Ingerbelle expansion is expected to add 10 years of mining to Copper Mountain, extending the mine schedule from 2027 to 2037. During the extended lifespan, it is projected to contribute approximately 750,000 tonnes of copper, 900,000 oz. of gold and 5.5 million oz. of silver production, based on current reserves, Hudbay said.\nFrom 2036 to 2040, the open-pit mine operation would begin re-handling low-grade ore stockpile and enter the reclamation and closure phase.\nShares of Hudbay rose over 3% as of midday Tuesday to close in on an all-time high. The company has a market capitalization of C$14.5 billion ($10.6 billion).\nEconomic driver\nBeyond its mineral output, the expansion serves as an economic engine for BC, as it is expected to generate over C$11.5 billion in provincial GDP and preserve 800 direct jobs, the company said.\n“The Ingerbelle expansion will ensure hundreds of good jobs are retained for the Princeton community, providing economic benefits to the community and the province for years to come,”  Jagrup Brar, BC’s Minister for Mining and Critical Minerals, commented in a press release.\nIn addition, Hudbay said it proactively engaged local communities for collaborative oversight throughout the permitting process and recently signed participation agreements with two First Nations groups.\nBC support\nApproval of Hudbay’s New Ingerbelle expansion project is the latest example of British Columbia’s push to bolster its supply of minerals key to the energy transition. The support extends beyond current producers. Last week, the province selected three early-stage developments, including two copper projects, for expedited permitting.\n“The New Ingerbelle permit ensures that we’ll be able to advance this major project while extending our partnership with local communities to facilitate additional growth investments at Copper Mountain and further adds to our 99 years of successful operations in Canada,” Hudbay’s CEO Peter Kukielski said in a press release.\nThe Copper Mountain mine has a rich history dating back to 1884, evolving from early underground operations to a major open-pit producer in the 1920s. However, due to market conditions, it was shut down in 1959 and was left idled for approximately three decades. The modern mine restarted in 2011 under its previous owner.\n\nHudbay becomes sole owner of Copper Mountain mine in British Columbia\n\nThe Vancouver-based miner acquired Copper Mountain in June 2023. The site features a 45,000-tonne-per-day processing plant that utilizes a conventional crushing, grinding and flotation circuit to produce copper concentrates with gold and silver credits. Last year, it produced 22,445 tonnes of copper, 19,465 oz. of gold and 221,406 oz. of silver.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"1","news_tag":"executive","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.36.2","shortVersion":"4.36.2","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2614119746","isCrawlerRequest":true}
