The chartered vessel is scheduled to arrive at the Port of Pisco on or around the 11 August. Haulage of the ore to the Port will be completed in advance of the vessel's scheduled arrival with loading of approximately 30,000 to 35,000 tonnes of Apurimac Premium Lump on to ship expected to take approximately 4 days.
