Ivanhoe assures DRC copper shipments proceeding as normal

TSX-listed Ivanhoe Mines has assured that its operations at the Kamoa-Kakula Copper Complex, in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), continue as normal, with major shipments being done from the mine gate, despite a third-party labour dispute.

This follows reports by news wires Reuters and Bloomberg earlier this week that a strike by truckers in the country was preventing the export of copper and cobalt mined in the DRC.
