TreKor Produces 18,600 Tonnes in Q3; Gibraltar Guidance Raised as Florence Ramp-Up Slows

Published: Oct 13, 2026 18:06 (GMT+8)
TreKor Metals reported combined copper production of approximately 18,600 tonnes from its Gibraltar mine and Florence Copper project in the third quarter of 2026. Gibraltar produced about 15,400 tonnes of copper and 172 tonnes of molybdenum, while Florence produced approximately 3,175 tonnes of copper cathode. Following strong operating performance at Gibraltar, TreKor raised the mine’s 2026 copper production guidance to 52,200–54,400 tonnes, from 49,900–52,200 tonnes. Florence’s 2026 production guidance was revised to 11,300–12,700 tonnes. Wellfield expansion remains about three months behind schedule, with full production capacity expected in early 2027. The update points to stronger output at Gibraltar, while Florence’s ramp-up remains slower than planned.

【Flash | Armenian Ferromolybdenum Gains Zero-Tariff Access to European Union Market】
Regulation 2026/2269 of the European Parliament and of the Council, published in the Official Journal of the European Union on October 9, took effect on October 10. Its first annex covers ferro-alloys under Combined Nomenclature heading 7202 and other metal oxides under heading 2825. Qualifying Armenian-origin ferromolybdenum and molybdenum oxides and hydroxides can therefore enter the European Union free of ad valorem import duty. The measure applies until October 11, 2028, subject to origin, documentation, suspension and safeguard provisions. The move from anticipated relief to effective zero-duty access strengthens the competitiveness of Armenian molybdenum products, while any increase in trade volumes remains to be confirmed.
