Rio Tinto is undertaking further drilling work at its Winu copper discovery in Western Australia’s Paterson Range. Arnaud Soirat, the head of Rio Tinto’s copper division, says the resources giant has identified other sites in the region that could also be drilled in the future. He adds that Rio Tinto’s focus is on value over volume, and that Winu could potentially be developed before the Resolution copper project in the US.
