    Our Leach to the Last Drop initiative is enhancing copper recovery with advanced, low-carbon techniques. We achieved our initial targeted run rate of 200 million pounds of copper per annum in 2023 and set a target to reach a run rate of 300 million pounds per annum by the end of 2025. Our ultimate goal of 800 million pounds per annum is the size of a major new mine with low capital investment required and low incremental operating costs. “At Freeport, we're really well positioned to capture the value of this opportunity with an extensive inventory of substantial residual copper from material already mined, an industry leading technical team with expertise in leaching technology and a strong multi-disciplined innovation team dedicated to this initiative.” - Kathleen Quirk, President and CEO.
