'Made in America' copper plans change at Hudbay mine near Tucson
Hudbay Minerals Inc. has delayed plans to produce finished copper at its Copper World mine near Tucson, citing strategic timing and market opportunities. The new feasibility study projects copper concentrate production to rise from 60,000 to 90,000 tons per day by its fifth year. Hudbay and Mitsubishi Corp. plan to start mining in 2029 and construction by the end of 2026.
