Nevada Copper board gives go-ahead for Pumpkin Hollow construction

The Pumpkin Hollow project will move into full-scale construction mode, after the Nevada Copper board on Tuesday announced a construction decision for the $197-million underground copper project, near Yerington, in the US.

The transition from preconstruction works to full-scale activities will enable TSX-listed Nevada Copper to meet its stated deadline of first copper production from the mine in 2019.
