686 Production of copper

(1) The production of copper is either or both of the following: (a) the physical and chemical transformation of concentrated mineralised copper compounds into either or both of the following: (i) copper cathode that has a concentration of copper greater than 99.90%; (ii) copper anode that has a concentration of copper: (A) equal to or greater than 99.00%; and (B) equal to or less than 99.90%; (b) the physical and chemical transformation of copper anode into copper cathode that has a concentration of copper greater than 99.90% where the copper anode: (i) has a concentration of copper: (A) equal to or greater than 99.00%; and (B) equal to or less than 99.90%; and (ii) was not produced as part of the transformation in subparagraph (a)(i). (2) For subclause (1), concentrated mineralised copper compounds include: (a) copper sulphide concentrates; and (b) copper electrolyte solution. (3) The production of copper is specified as an emissions‑intensive trade‑exposed activity.
