运营和项目

卡莫阿-卡库拉铜矿是一家由艾芬豪矿业 (39.6%)、紫金矿业集团 (39.6%)、Crystal River Global Limited (0.8%) 和刚果民主共和国政府 (20%) 共同投资的合资企业，拥有一座大型近地表且平伏的层状铜矿床，毗邻处于中非铜矿带内的远景勘探区，位于科卢韦齐镇以西约 25 公里及卢本巴希首府以西约 270 公里。

卡莫阿-卡库拉于 2021 年 5 月开始了铜精矿生产，并于 2021 年 7 月 1 日开始了商业生产。On 2024 年 6 月 10 日 first concentrate production from the Phase 3 concentrator was achieved, months ahead of schedule.  The Phase 3 concentrator expansion reached commercial production early in Q3, 2024 and is expected to boost production to over 600,000 tonnes of copper per annum in 2026, positioning Kamoa-Kakula as the largest copper mine on the African continent.

The new on-site 500,000-tonne-per-annum direct-to-blister copper smelter will have a capacity of 500,000 tonnes of >99%-pure blister-anode copper per annum making it the largest on the African continent and will offer transformative financial benefits for the Kamoa-Kakula Copper Complex, most notably a significant reduction in logistics costs.

Kamoa-Kakula 由清洁、可再生水电提供电能。英国伦敦的独立咨询公司 Skarn Associates 估计，Kamoa-Kakula 铜矿综合体的每开采一吨金属产生的温室气体 (GHG) 排放强度处于全球最低水平之列，并且低于任何一座大型铜矿山。
