CuDeco Limited announced the temporary suspension of processing plant operations at its Rocklands Copper Mine, at the directive of the Department of Natural Resources & Mines (DNRM). The directive follows an investigation by the DNRM on 30 November that identified a number of issues with the process plant. The suspension will remain pending further review of the mine's Site Safety and Health Management System (SHMS) and its implementation to ensure compliance under the Mining and Quarrying Safety and Health Regulations 2017.
