Queensland copper producer CuDeco on Tuesday reported that its first delivery of sulphide copper concentrates had been sent from its flagship Rocklands operations, near Cloncurry, to the Port of Townsville, ahead of the start of bulk shipments. The shipment compliments the second shipment of 300 t of native copper that was also bagged and shipped to the port this week and follows the Cloncurry project’s first production of native copper concentrate, sold under the offtake agreement with China Oceanwide International Investment.
