“We are excited to support BHP on their growth plans to increase
production of refined copper cathode in South Australia,” said
Harish Jammula, President of Fluor’s Mining & Metals business.
“Accelerated expansion of the downstream processing sector is
increasingly important to secure local supply of mined materials,
become independent of overseas supply and drive sustainable
production technologies.”
The contract will be executed in stages as BHP progresses
towards a final investment decision on the smelter and refinery
expansion, currently expected in the first half of 2027, and
through to subsequent construction.
This phased strategy aims to support BHP’s assessment of the
pathway to increase production in South Australia to more than
500,000 tonnes of refined copper cathode by the early 2030s, and a
strategy to deliver up to 650,000 tonnes of refined copper cathode
from the mid-2030s.
