Snapshot: Eight companies with advancing copper projects

The Vancouver-based miner entered into an arm’s length agreement with EFPP.

The Sydney-based miner wants to acquire an 80% interest in a gold-silver project near its Pingüino operation.

Indicated resources have increased to 1.17 million tonnes at 3.52% copper-equivalent for a total of 90.7 million lb. of contained copper-equivalent metal.

Exploration drilling intersected high-grade copper and zinc mineralization 10 km to the southwest of the company’s Brabant-Mckenzie deposit.

Australia's largest gold producer has now reached its Stage 2 farm-in milestone at the project.

Metallurgical testwork as well as tradeoff optimization studies are underway to refine inputs for the PFS.

Company has unveiled a maiden resource at its Condor project in southeast Ecuador, of 11.9 million inferred tonnes grading 2.95 g/t gold equivalent for 1.1 million gold-equivalent oz.

The offer consists of a $175-million cash payment and the assumption of all Centerra’s obligations under the partnership agreement.

Last year, Hope Bay produced 139,510 oz. of gold.
