Westmetall´s Copper
Production
Westmetall's copper is produced at the smelters Rönnskär in Sweden and Harjavalta in Finland. We sell both copper cathodes to metal customers and copper anodes to industrial customers. We produce copper concentrate at several of our mines, including Aitik, which is Europe's largest copper mine. Copper, like many other metals, can be recycled endlessly without compromising its properties or quality. At the smelters Rönnskär and Harjavalta, we recycle and produce new copper with a low carbon footprint.
A conduit for tomorrow
Copper is mainly used by the jewelry industry, but a significant portion is also utilized as an investment in the form of coins and gold bars. Gold is an important economic asset in the global market. Approximately one-third of the world’s total gold reserves are held by the central banks of various countries.
