2024 Precious Metals Summit Zurich + Energy Transition summary
15 Jan, 2026Project Highlights and Recent Achievements
Green Bay Copper-Gold Project resource updated to 59 million tonnes at 2% copper equivalent, representing a 42% increase and ranking among Canada's top undeveloped copper resources, with 1.2Mt contained metal.
Market capitalization rose from AUD 70 million to AUD 700 million in one year, with AUD 88 million cash on hand and no debt, supporting aggressive exploration and development.
District land holdings expanded from 58 to 326 square kilometers, supporting a regional exploration strategy and multiple walk-up copper and gold targets within 25km of infrastructure.
57% institutional register, major shareholder BlackRock at 14%; dual-listing on TSX expected by month-end, with a market cap of AUD 682M as of November 2024.
Board and management have strong track records in mine development and operations, with experience from Bellevue Gold, Northern Star, and major financial institutions.
Asset Transformation and Infrastructure
Acquired Green Bay out of insolvency, eliminating AUD 100 million debt, streams, and off-take agreements.
Inherited significant infrastructure: dewatered underground access, 500,000 tpa mill, water treatment, workshops, operational declines, shaft, processing plant, deep water port, and hydro power.
Existing mill capacity mismatched to ore body scale; plans to build a new mill to maximize value and enable upscaled production.
Access to a deep water port six kilometers away enhances export potential.
High-quality copper concentrate with no deleterious elements, attracting strong market interest.
Exploration and Resource Growth Strategy
Over 1,500 meters of development and 40 kilometers of drilling completed in the past year, with 130,000m of drilling planned for 2024/25.
Resource growth driven by step-out drilling, with ore body open at depth and along strike, and both VMS and Footwall Zones remaining open.
Downhole geophysics and EM surveys reveal further resource potential beyond current boundaries, identifying new high-grade copper zones and extensions.
Two distinct mineralization styles: high-grade massive sulfides and large-scale bulk stockwork zones, with the Ming Mine featuring a high-grade VMS zone (6Mt @ 4.3% CuEq) and a broad footwall zone.
Five historic mines in the district, including Little Deer and Whalesback, remain open and are expected to add to future resources.
