The copper smelter and PMR facilities are recognized as National Strategic Projects by the Indonesian government, highlighting their critical importance to the country's economic development and industrial growth. AMIN's role in implementing these projects underscores its commitment to advancing domestic mineral processing capabilities and contributing to the strategic objectives of Indonesia's mining sector.
These facilities will span a 150-hectare area, situated 1.5 km from our Benete Port. With a smelter input capacity of 900,000 tonnes per annum (tpa), we will process copper concentrate from the Batu Hijau mine and the Future Elang mine under our ownership.
As part of the Smelter Project, we are currently developing additional infrastructure crucial to supporting smelter operations. This includes an Air Separation Unit, a Desalination and Demineralization Water Plant, a sulfuric acid plant, an effluent treatment plant, a slag concentrator, a gas cleaning plant, and various other essential components.
These ongoing construction efforts are designed to ensure the seamless and efficient operation of the smelter and its associated processes. Upon completion of the Smelter Project, we will operate a fully integrated operation spanning from mine to smelter, establishing a standalone mining, processing, smelting, and refining complex strategically positioned near key end-market regions.
