[miningmx.com] -- Zambia's Konkola Copper Mines (KCM) plans to more than double output to 305,000 tonnes of copper cathode in 2009 after launching a new business plan, the company said.

Officials said Konkola's 305,000 tonnes planned output for this year is way above around 140,000 tonnes of copper produced in 2008 and half of Zambia's total projected copper production of 600,000 tonnes in 2009.
