Africa focused gold and copper exploration and development company Alecto Minerals has started test production at its Mowana copper project, in Botswana, after initial commissioning at the project’s process plant, says CEO Mark Jones.
He notes that Alecto is moving at speed to deliver continuous production and first sales at Mowana, where first production blast was projected for the end of March, using a local contractor.
Jones, in a statement in March, highlighted that the “the atmosphere on site is buoyant”, with the plant producing saleable concentrate up to 28% copper. This will comprise part of the first tranche of product to be delivered to minerals and energy trading company Fujax Minerals & Energy, under a five year copper offtake contract.
