MMG’s Las Bambas copper mine in Peru is on track to achieve full-year production of about 348,000 tonnes of copper concentrate, after output rose from 31,470 tonnes to 87,142 tonnes in the June 2016 quarter. Macquarie Group had forecast production of just 75,000 tonnes in the second quarter, and it anticipates output of 450,000 tonnes in 2017. Macquarie has upgraded its recommendation on MMG shares from "neutral" to "outperform", and its share price target has been raised from $A3.15 to $A5.80.
