Byrnecut wins $300m Capricorn Copper mining contract

Byrnecut Australia has won a $300 million, five-year mining contract for the Capricorn Copper operation, 120km north of Mount Isa.

Capricorn Copper managing director Carl Hallion said the mining contractor would be mobilising from this month as activity ramped up at the mine.

“There is an increase in activity with various contractors and consultants coming for pre-refurbishment visits, prep work, surveys and estimations, for example,” he said.

Lighthouse Minerals and EMR Capital took control of the Mount Gordon operation from former owner Aditya Birla in October 2015 and are restarting it as Capricorn Copper.

A $110 million capital program is under way at the site, which has been on care and maintenance since April 2013
