Mining News Pro - Trafigura intends to restart its copper mine in Democratic Republic of Congo, the prime minister`s office said following a meeting with the commodity trader on Thursday.
Trafigura`s head of mining Emmanuel Henry told Prime Minister Sylvestre Ilunga Ilunkamba the mine had faced operational difficulties because of unstable copper prices, but aims to reopen after a temporary closure, the office`s statement said.
Trafigura`s Mawson West mine, north of Lake Mweru in Haut-Katanga province, has a production capacity of 26 000 metric tonnes of copper a year and employs about 800 people, according to a company brochure.
Trafigura did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
