Contact Details
In December 2022, Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (Harmony) acquired 100% of Eva Copper Mine Pty Ltd (the Eva Copper Mine Project or 'Eva Copper').
Located 75 kilometres from the town of Cloncurry and 95 kilometres north-east of Mt Isa in the North West region of Queensland, Eva Copper is envisioned to be an open pit mine with a conventional crush, two-stage grind and flotation circuit for the production of copper and gold concentrates from seven open-pit deposits.
Harmony is currently undertaking a review of the existing feasibility study and detailed design completed to date. This review and optimisation process, which is being managed by the company's regional office in Brisbane, is expected to take up to 12 months.
As part of this review and optimisation process, Harmony will determine the most effective way of executing the Project to bring the mine into production. Once a financial investment decision (FID) on the project is achieved, construction of the mine and processing facility is expected to take approximately 24 to 36 months. In addition to the mining infrastructure, project construction will include an access road, on-site accommodation village, administration buildings, maintenance, training and first-aid facilities.
Eva Copper will deliver diverse and complex engineering and construction work packages.
EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST
Eva Copper Mine Pty Ltd encourages local industry interested in supplying to the project to register an expression of interest (EOI) through the ICN Gateway webpage.
Information on specific supply opportunities will be communicated on the ICN Gateway project page as it becomes available, with local industry able to register its interest against them.
Please ensure that:
- Your company profile on the ICN Gateway is complete, up-to-date, and accurate including electing to be notified via e-mail of supply opportunities
- You register your interest as a full or partial scope supplier (where applicable), and
- You respond to all project and work package-specific questions.
It is important that businesses submitting an EOI are aware that their submission does not guarantee that they will progress further in the procurement process. Only companies that can demonstrate capability and capacity in accordance with Eva Copper Mine Pty Ltd standards will be invited to pre-qualify for specific opportunities.
FURTHER ASSISTANCE
