It would take 1,194 truck loads like this to provide the 2,866 tons of copper needed for a 1 GW wind turbine—that's just for the copper. To produce 2,866 tons of copper from ore with a 0.6% yield miners must process about 167–200 tons of ore per ton of copper. Current estimates (2020s) place the average for operating mines at approximately 0.5–0.6% with many large mines below 0.6% and new projects even lower (around 0.4–0.5%). The formula is: Total material required (tons) = Copper produced (tons) ÷ Yield (decimal) Total material = 2,866 ÷ 0.006 = 477,666.67 tons divided by 400 ton trucks equals 1194 truck loads.
