Oxide ore will be transported by road train to TNC’s Cloncurry Operations Hub’s (COH) heap leach. Sulphide ore will be transported to a nearby concentrator for toll treatment under TNC’s toll-milling agreement with Glencore International AG.

The COH is 2km from the town of Cloncurry in northern Queensland and will service all four of TNC’s deposits with essential infrastructure, technical systems and support.
