The teething problems encountered during the restart of the plant, coming out of a period of extended care and maintenance, were quickly identified and remedied, the company said.
The feed grade delivered from the pit has been about 20% above the forecast feed grade of 1.2% copper.
All processing plant circuits have been brought back to operational status.
The average concentrate grade is 26% copper, which is about 12% above forecasts.
