About Ivanhoe Mines Ltd.

Ivanhoe Mines Ltd. (IVN) is a copper mining company. Our project database tracks 4 projects for Ivanhoe Mines Ltd. with technical and economic data extracted from company filings. Its flagship project is Western Forelands Exploration Project, a exploration-stage project in Democratic Republic of Congo.

Overview

Ivanhoe Mines Ltd. is a Canadian mining company focused on advancing major copper, gold, and zinc projects in Southern Africa. Founded by mining entrepreneur Robert Friedland, the company is developing three principal projects on the Central African Copperbelt and in South Africa. Ivanhoe's Kamoa-Kakula copper project has emerged as one of the world's highest-grade major copper mines.

Operations

Ivanhoe's flagship operation is the Kamoa-Kakula copper mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo, which commenced production in 2021 and is rapidly expanding. The mine produces some of the highest-grade copper globally with exceptionally low costs. The company also owns the Platreef palladium-platinum-nickel-copper-gold project in South Africa and the Kipushi zinc-copper-germanium-silver mine in the DRC.

Strategy

The company's strategy emphasizes rapid expansion of Kamoa-Kakula to become one of the world's largest copper producers, advancing Platreef toward production to capitalize on the PGM and battery metals opportunity, restarting the historic Kipushi mine to capitalize on zinc demand, leveraging in-country partnerships and relationships, and building a major African-focused mining company supplying critical minerals for the energy transition.

Key Projects

Kamoa-Kakula Phase 3 expansion is underway with plans to reach 600,000+ tonnes of copper production, making it one of the world's largest copper mines. The Platreef project is advancing toward first production of palladium, platinum, nickel, copper, rhodium, and gold. Kipushi zinc mine is in advanced stages of redevelopment with first production expected soon. All projects benefit from hydropower and low carbon intensity.
