CopperSilverGold
Mine life
21 years
Production
The October 2025 Feasibility Study projects an average annual production of 148,200 tonnes of copper cathode over the life of the mine. For the first five years, production is expected to average 204,800 tonnes per year.
Processing
The project will use heap leaching and a solvent extraction and electrowinning (SX/EW) facility to produce high-purity copper cathodes on site.
Expansion
The project received its Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) approval for construction and operation in December 2024. In September 2025, the project was admitted to Argentina's Large Investment Incentive Regime (RIGI), providing 30 years of fiscal and legal stability. Construction is targeted to begin in 2027, with first copper production anticipated in 2029 or 2030. The initial capital expenditure is estimated at $3.17 billion. McEwen Copper is planning an Initial Public Offering (IPO) towards the end of 2026 to raise approximately $300 million as part of a larger $4 billion financing package for the project. The operation will be powered by 100% renewable energy. There is potential to extend the mine life by more than 30 years by processing primary sulfide ores with Nuton's technology or a conventional concentrator.
