Metso to showcase copper processing expertise at Arizona show

Metso will showcase its copper processing expertise at the 12th International Copper Conference, taking place in Arizona, USA, from November 16-20, 2025.

The conference is part of the Extraction 2025 event, of which Metso is one of the main sponsors. The themes of the five-day event focus on copper, nickel and cobalt. During the event, Metso will present several studies highlighting key developments and innovations in copper processing, underscoring its commitment to advancing the industry.

“The global need for copper is expected to grow significantly in the coming years,” Metso vice president of smelting Jyrki Makkonen said.

“At the same time, depleting ore grades introduce challenges in extracting copper. Metso’s solutions play a key role in tackling these challenges and helping the industry meet the growing demand. The International Copper Conference at Extraction 2025 is a key platform for Metso to connect with industry leaders and share our expertise.”

Metso’s experts will be available at booth #312 to discuss various end-to-end sustainable solutions in copper processing.

In addition, Metso’s experts will be sharing insightful keynote presentations during the conference. Some of the topics include:

  • Capex structure of a greenfield copper smelter investment
