Australia Copper Mining to 2035
Powered by ![]()
All the vital news, analysis, and commentary curated by our industry experts.
GlobalData's "Australia Copper Mining to 2035" provides a comprehensive coverage on the Australian copper mining industry. It provides historical and forecast data on copper production, reserves by country, and world copper prices. The report also includes a demand drivers section providing information on factors that are affecting the country’s copper industry such as demand from end use sectors. It further profiles major copper producers, information on the major active, planned and exploration projects.
Australia’s copper production is expected to fall to 710.4 thousand tonnes (kt) in 2025, a 7.9% year-on-year drop. This dip is largely attributed to the closure of the Mount Isa mine, which contributed 41.2kt in 2024, coupled with operational disruptions at key mines. The Cadia mine is progressing towards its next panel cave development, Boddington continues with an extensive waste-stripping campaign, while Ernest Henry is scheduled for maintenance shutdowns. Additional depletion challenges at mines such as the Nove Bollinger, Osborne and Deflector are expected to further weigh on country’s production in 2025. However, production is expected to recover from 2026 as operating conditions normalize. Both Cadia and Boddington are scheduled to return to regular production levels, and the Whim Creek project, currently under construction, is targeted to begin operations in late 2026.
