The factory has been in operation since August 2008, but due to the operation and use of very new technology, the first time “running to the maximum” is the main thing. Therefore, in 2009-2010, only 60% of the designed capacity was produced and in 2011 the Lao Cai copper smelting plant went into production according to the designed capacity.
