The Company’s Endeavor mine at Cobar has an annual capacity of 1,200,000 tonnes of ore. The mine along with related surface facilities has potential to produce about 140,000 tonnes zinc concentrates p.a. and 60,000 tonnes of lead concentrates p.a. when put into full production. At present the mine is being operated at a reduced level so as to lessen the operating outlays. The mine initially became productive in 1983 and it was taken over by CBH in September 2003. CBH is planning a new open pit copper-zinc mine at Panorama in the Pilbara region of WA in addition to exploring further resources along a 30 km strike length that can support the Panorama Development.
