Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has visited Glencore\u2019s Mount Isa mines to discuss the importance of metals and minerals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mt Isa copper-zinc mines are located in Mount Isa, Queensland, and are home to the only copper smelter and refinery in the state<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glencore head of zinc and copper business Sam Strohmayr said the company had been looking forward to welcoming the Prime Minister to the site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe were delighted to host the Prime Minister and pleased that he was able to take time to visit our zinc operations,\u201d Strohmayr said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe were also grateful to have the opportunity to discuss the increasing importance of metals and minerals in Australia and the contribution our operations make to the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMount Isa is one of Australia\u2019s most successful mining towns and this is in large part to the support we get from the community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glencore\u2019s Queensland metals business<\/a> employed over 4400 people in 2022, and contributed<\/a> $2.4 billion to the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This number included $1.7 billion spent on goods and services, which allowed the company to work with approximately 2130 local suppliers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2022, Glencore spent $1.25 billion in investment commitments in transition metals, including spending $475 million to acquire the remaining 56.25 per cent interest<\/a> in the MARA copper project in the Catamarca province of Argentina.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
