Published by
Simon Matthis - 13 Nov, 2024

Mazoon Mining, a subsidiary of Minerals Development Oman (MDO), marked a
significant milestone with the official groundbreaking of the Mazoon Copper
Project in the Wilayat of Yanqul, Al Dhahirah Governorate, on 10 November 2024.
The ceremony was held under the patronage of His Excellency Abdul Salam bin
Mohammed Al-Murshidi, Chairman of the Oman Investment Authority (OIA). The
project plays a key role in meeting the growing global demand for copper.

Mazoon Copper Project is the largest integrated copper concentrate production
project in the Sultanate of Oman, covering 20 square kilometers and consisting
of five open-pit mines with an estimated 22.9 million tons of copper ore
reserves. The project also includes the construction of a state-of-the-art
processing plant, spanning 56,000 square meters, with the capacity to process
2.5 million tons of copper ore annually. It is projected to produce 115,000 tons
of copper concentrate per year at a 21.5% copper grade.

His Excellency Abdul Salam bin Mohammed Al Murshidi, Chairman of the Oman
Investment Authority, stated:  "This project marks a transformative step in
positioning Oman as a strategic copper hub, contributing to the diversification
of our national economy and creating sustainable job opportunities for Omanis.
We are confident that the project will have a significant positive impact on the
local community, supporting SMEs and driving economic development."

Dr. Badar bin Saud Al Kharusi, Chairman of Minerals Development Oman, added: 
"We are proud to see the progress of Mazoon Copper Project after an extensive
series of exploration activities. This project marks a milestone for Minerals
Development Oman, adding invaluable assets to our portfolio. The company began
copper ore extraction from Block 4 in Wilayat of Sohar in 2024 and has continued
its exploration efforts across its 23,644 square kilometer concession area. With
the necessary financing secured, the project reflects the trust garnered locally
and globally. We are committed to ensuring each project phase meets the highest
environmental and social standards."

Sustainability is a core pillar of the Mazoon Copper Project. The project has
adopted a water recycling system and waste management systems to preserve the
surrounding environment, safeguarding air quality, and protecting groundwater.

 

Minerals Development Oman continues to advance its exploration campaigns across
a range of strategic minerals, including copper, chromite, gypsum, limestone,
dolomite, and silica.
