Copper output totaled 4.6 million tons in 2000, 4.8% above the 1999 level and up from 3.1 million in 1996—2000 saw a significant recovery in the price of copper and a strong drop in metal stocks. The state-run Chilean National Copper Corp. (Corporación del Cobre de Chile—CODELCO) produced 1.6 million tons of fine copper in 2000 (35% of the country’s output), slipping to second among the world’s producers. On the other hand, CODELCO positioned itself as one of the industry’s lowest-cost firms and remained one of the state’s most important sources of revenue—its revenues from copper sales in 2000 were $2.74 billion, and from 1994 to 1999, CODELCO paid $5.45 billion to the treasury. Chuquicamata topped CODELCO’s five copper mines with 630,000 tons produced. CODELCO announced a strategic plan for 2001–2006 to substantially increase is value and ability to generate income and has set a goal of doubling the company’s worth during the period, to reach a net income of $1.8 billion. With start-up of a tertiary crushing plant scheduled for 2001, CODELCO’s Radomiro Tomic operation was to become the world’s largest electrowinning cathode facility and one of the lowest-cost copper operations. Another important event was the agreement signed by CODELCO and Barrick Chile Ltda. to explore, operate, and possibly develop the Rio Hurtado property for copper-gold porphyry ore; this would be the first joint venture involving property belonging to third parties. CODELCO announced that it would begin to study the feasibility of developing an underground panel-caving operation at the Chuquicamata mine to access the sizable reserves remaining at depth. Its board of directors approved an expansion of the El Teniente Division—the world’s largest underground copper mine using panel-caving methods—to raise annual production from 356,000 tons per year of copper to 480,000 beginning in 2003. CODELCO also produced gold (metal doré), molybdenum (trioxide and concentrate), silver, and sulfuric acid.
Chile Copper Mining Brief Introduction
Located 1,650km north of Santiago, Chile, the Chuquicamata mine is a large open pit copper mine. The copper mine, popularly known as Chuqui, has been operating since 1910. Despite being explored for over 90 years, the mine produced 29 million tonnes of copper by the end of 2007.
NFLG has offered copper ore crushers and mills for the project. Large quantities of the copper ore are crushed within the pit. And underground belt conveyors transport the crushed ore to the mill bins. You can get what you want after being grinded by ball mills.
In the Colombia coal mining project, NFLG has offered two-stages coal crushing plants. The core equipment are coal crushers which include PE jaw crushers and PC hammer crushers. All the coal crushers are adjustable in the input sizes, finished sizes and capacity.
There are both stationary crushing plant and mobile crushing screening station. You can get related spare parts from our company who will provide you with best price.
250TPH ~ 300TPH Crushing Product line
This is a brief introduction about our crushing plant with capacity varying from 250 tph to 300 tph. This plant is a small scale crushing production line in which you can get three different products. For large plant, you can chat with our engineers who will tailor it for you.
Here in this example, we have chosen PE-1000*1200 as primary crusher and HPC 220-Coarse cone crusher as secondary crusher and tertiary crushing machine. On top of these machines, it’s also important to choose suitable vibrating feeder and vibrating screen . In the picture above, we adopt vibrating screen with three layers to obtain three different finished products. All the related machines mentioned above refer to higher model products with bigger input size and higher capacity.
