PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Copper miner Straits has reported record production from its Tritton mine, in New South Wales, during the three months to the end of September.

The mine increased its production by 16% quarter-on-quarter to 7 255 t as a result of improved mining and processing, Straits reported.

Total costs for the quarter fell by 13% on the previous quarter's cost, to A$2.33/lb, resulting from the higher volume of ore mined and processed.

Straits expects to produce 6 300 t of copper in the December quarter, which will take its full-year production to 25 000 t of product.
