    Underground mining advances at Oyu Tolgoi mine in Mongolia

    Turquoise Hill Resources recently announced fourth-quarter 2016 production totals that ran at record levels for material mined and ore treated. Oyu Tolgoi also exceeded both copper and gold production guidance for the year, said Jeff Tygesen, Turquoise Hill CEO. Concentrator performance during the fourth quarter was strong with the highest throughput since production began. Oyu Tolgoi is well-positioned to sustain the 2017 grade challenges. In the fourth quarter of 2016, concentrator throughput increased 7.4% over third-quarter 2016 resulting in an average daily rate of 106,700 metric tons (mt) for the quarter, which was a quarterly high.
