About this tender

Overview At present studies are ongoing into an expansion of BHP's existing copper refining facilities at Olympic Dam to construct a two-stage smelter and associated refinery complex. The proposed Smelter & Refinery Expansion (SRE) project will enable BHP to process significantly more concentrate from across its Copper SA operations. The scope will include copper concentrate import and blending facilities, additional smelting capacity, additional refining capacity and additional non-process infrastructure to support the expansion program. Express interest for any opportunities that may arise for this project.
