THE CATHODE IS THE BASIC PRODUCT OF COPPER PRODUCTION. IT IS PRODUCED IN A MARKETABLE FORM AT AURUBIS FOR USE IN HIGH-QUALITY APPLICATIONS.

A CATHODE – A 50 TO 80 KG COPPER SQUARE – IS PRODUCED WHEN PURE COPPER SEPARATES FROM UNWROUGHT COPPER IN AN ELECTROLYTIC REFINING PROCESS. AURUBIS PRODUCES ABOUT 1.2 MILLION T OF CATHODES WITH A COPPER CONTENT OF AT LEAST 99.99 %.
