*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
MARA (Agua Rica) is a copper-gold-molybdenum porphyry deposit. The base case scenario calls for an open pit operation with the ore treated in a 110kt/d concentrator. For the first five years the mine will produce a clean concentrate. After five years the plant will be converted to dual lines, one line producing a clean concentrate (80% of output). The other 20% will have a high arsenic content and will further treated on site via leaching and pressure oxidation to produce a gold dore. Following the 2019 integration agreement, the mine will use the existing facilities at Alumbrera to process the ore.
