OZ Minerals has warned that power costs at its Prominent Hill gold and copper mine could rise by 2-5 per cent from mid-2020. BHP Billiton has advised that it will end an agreement for OZ to access the Olympic Dam mine’s power transmission infrastructure from August 2020. BHP has indicated that the proposed expansion of Olympic Dam will significantly increase the copper and uranium mine’s electricity requirements, forcing OZ Minerals to seek an alternative source of electricity.
