The large-scale Briggs porphyry Cu-Mo deposit in Queensland - an emerging Tier 1 deposit
Briggs is a very large Cu-Mo deposit located a mere 60km from the deep-water port of Gladstone in Central Queensland. Recent studies have demonstrated superb metallurgical recovery of copper into high-grade concentrates form very coarse primary grind sizes. Coupled with a large, outcropping resource, with several options for higher grade starter pits, Briggs looks likely to become one of Australia's next generation copper mines.
