Mining edit

Kalumbila Mine is a copper mine operated by FQM Trident Limited (previously known as Kalumbila Minerals), a wholly owned subsidiary of First Quantum Minerals of Canada.[4]

The Enterprise Nickel Project is an open-pit nickel mine, also owned by First Quantum Minerals, and is 12 km from the Kalumbila Mine.[5][6] The Kalumbila Mine processing facility will be used to produce nickel concentrate output.[5][7] The project, estimated at U$275 million,[8] was expected to be operational at the end of 2021 but as of March 2022 was still yet to be operational.[9][10] In May 2022, First Quantum Minerals approved an additional US$100 million investment the project, which is now expected to commence production in 2023.[11]
