Metals X Limited provided production update for the December 2018 quarter for its Nifty Copper Operations (Nifty) in Western Australia and its 50%-owned Renison Tin Operations (Renison) in Tasmania ahead of the company's December 2018 quarterly report. Continued quarter on quarter production increase at both Nifty and Renison: Nifty copper production of 5,177 tonnes of copper in concentrate, an improvement of 11% over the prior quarter, driven by a focus on developing and stoping in areas outside of the Central Zone. Renison tin production of 1,798 tonnes of tin in concentrate, an improvement of 11% over the prior quarter, driven by increased mined grade and commissioning & operation of the ore sorter. Focus on development: Nifty development rates increased by more than 40% quarter on quarter, with development predominantly into the West, East and Northern Zones, outside of the Central Zone. Renison development balanced across current production areas and early development of declines towards the newly evolving Area 5 and Leatherwood zones. Nifty copper production increased 11% during the quarter (5,177 tonnes of copper in concentrate in the December 2018 quarter versus 4,678 tonnes of copper in concentrate in the September 2018 quarter). The priority for the quarter at Nifty was to improve the quality of stope production and increase the productivity of development to enable the opening up of new production areas west, east and north of the Central Zone in 2019. Renison tin production increased 11% during the quarter (1,798 tonnes of tin in concentrate in the December 2018 quarter versus 1,616 tonnes of tin in concentrate in the September 2018 quarter). The improved production resulted from increased mined grade and the commissioning and operation of the ore sorter.
