29 Sep, 2026Project overview and strategy
100% ownership of a large, high-grade copper-gold porphyry system in Chile, with rapid growth since 2021 and ongoing expansion through systematic drilling and district consolidation.
Over 45,000m drilled in four phases, with Phase VI exceeding 25,000m and expanding the mineralized footprint; system limits remain undefined.
District-scale exploration strategy targets both the main Valeriano system and regional prospects like Nuevo Horizonte, leveraging geological and geophysical signatures.
Multiple porphyry-style targets identified across a 25,000 ha land package, with ongoing consolidation of surface rights and regional exploration.
Supported by a strong management team and major shareholders, including Agnico Eagle (~16%) and Pierre Lassonde (~10%).
Resource growth and drilling results
2025 Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE): 475 Mt @ 0.88% CuEq Indicated and 1.51 Bt @ 0.75% CuEq Inferred, totaling 34 Blbs CuEq, with high-grade B2B zone (+50 Mt @ +1.5% CuEq).
Phase VI drilling delivered record holes, expanding both the B2B breccia and high-grade porphyry trends, with mineralization open in multiple directions.
Notable intercepts include 584m @ 1.27% CuEq, 164m @ 2.77% CuEq, and 86m @ 3.84% CuEq in ATXD25C; 887m @ 1.06% CuEq and 186m @ 2.15% CuEq in ATXD26B.
Metallurgical tests confirm robust copper and gold recoveries (92–95% Cu, 90–97% Au) and marketable concentrate grades.
Ongoing technical studies and independent reviews support resource growth and de-risking.
Infrastructure and operations
Located in a globally significant copper district with access to regional infrastructure, including power, water (desalination), and ports.
No structural power constraints identified; Chile’s unified grid and new renewable projects enhance supply reliability.
Water supply options include shared regional desalination infrastructure, with long-term monitoring and planning.
Geotechnical and mining studies completed to support future development pathways and reduce technical uncertainty.
