SYDNEY (Yosefardi) – Finders Resources Limited reported that its 3,000 tons per annum commercial solvent extraction/electrowinning plant (3Kt Plant) commenced cathode production on 31 March 2014.

The plant is processing solution from heaps of newly stacked ore. First cathode is expected by mid-April with the first shipment of copper expected to leave site by the end of the month.

Finders is pleased to be plating copper again on Wetar Island. The cathode produced will provide cashflow and momentum as Finders proceeds with financing and then commences construction of the main 25,000 tons per annum plant.
