Concentrator

Mopani Copper Mines PLC operates three Concentrators; two at Nkana Mine Site in Kitwe and one at Mufulira Mine Site. The New Nkana Synclinorium Concentrator in Kitwe was commissioned in March 2022 and is expected to improve recoveries and improve production efficiencies while the Old Nkana Concentrator, which has been in operation since the 1930s, has since been placed under Care and Maintenance. The copper concentrates from the New Nkana Synclinorium Concentrator are trucked to Mufulira and together with those from the Mufulira Concentrator, are fed into the Smelter at Mufulira Mine Site for smelting and processing to produce Copper Anodes.
