Alara Resources commenced concentrate production at its Al Wash-hi–Majaza copper-gold mine in Oman through its joint venture, Al Hadeetha Resources.
The mine is expected to reach total capacity in two to three months. Alara will sell its first 1000 dry metric tons of copper concentrate to Trafigura in April.
The milestone follows over a decade of effort, from project site identification to construction completion, with crucial support from local joint venture partners, Al Naba Services and Al Tasnim Enterprises.
