Carbine Tungsten

Carbine Tungsten has a two stage development plan for the reopening its Mt Carbine tungsten mine, in Far North Queensland, historically, Mt Carbine produced 40% of Australia's tungsten.

When the Mt Carbine mine was operational between 1973 and 1987 it produced very high grade of concentrate with the lowest quartile production cost among all the world's tungsten producers. Carbine Tungsten has now become a major tungsten concentrate producer mainly from processing stockpiles from its Mt Carbine tungsten mine through its tailings retreatment project that began production in 2012 and its planned re-commissioning of the hard rock open cut mine that is to become productive in 2014.
