On the results of H1 2014 the Kazakhmys group produced 139 thousand tons of copper in cathode equivalent. The production volume by the end of 2014 is expected at the planned rate of 285-295 thousand tons. In H2 the company plans to increase the production volume due to the processing of the additional volumes of raw materials. The ore production in H1 made up 18.2 mln tons. The average copper content in ore is 1.02%. The copper concentrate production out of the group’s own raw materials in Q2 2014 by 9% exceeded the Q1 rate due to the rise of the volumes of extracted ore.
