KGHM wins EU strategic project status for Retków-Grodziszcze copper deposit development
  • KGHM Polska Miedź won EU “strategic project” status for the Retków-Grodziszcze deposit development, including construction of the Retków mine shaft.
  • A second EU strategic label covers conversion of the Legnica Copper Smelter into an integrated recycling smelter; total planned spend tops PLN 9.5 billion.
  • Retków-Grodziszcze is expected to support extraction of more than 100 million tonnes of ore through 2055, containing nearly 1.5 million tonnes of copper.
  • Legnica recycling project targets about 135,000 tonnes a year of electrolytic copper output, underpinned by long-term access to copper scrap.
  • Strategic status may speed permitting, improve process coordination, and open access to preferential external funding for both projects.
