Copper Intelligence Inc. has confirmed copper mineralisation at its Sampwe Copper Project in the DRC through surface grab and channel sampling. Significant results include a channel sample of 3.9% Cu over 3.2m and grab samples as high as 10.1% Cu from the Sonta Sandstone unit.
Copper Intelligence has released maiden drill results from its Butembo Copper Project in the DRC, highlighting significant copper mineralisation. The program intersected high-grade copper in all 13 principal holes, including a 7.55m intercept at 5.39% Cu from surface in hole BCDD001.
Copper Intelligence has reported highly encouraging maiden drilling results from its Butembo Copper Project in the DRC. The program intersected significant copper grades, including 7.55m at 5.39% Cu, with evidence of native cuprite suggesting strong supergene enrichment.
Ivanhoe Mines has expanded its Makoko copper discovery by 30%, reaching approximately 12 million tonnes of contained copper. The updated resource includes 42 million tonnes of indicated resources at 2.66% copper and 612 million tonnes of inferred resources at 1.8% copper.
Ivanhoe Mines announced updated independent study results for its Kamoa-Kakula Copper Complex, reaffirming a world-class Indicated Mineral Resource of 1.27 billion tonnes at 2.65% copper for 34 million tonnes of contained copper. While the updated Mineral Reserve decreased by 25% to 13.1 million tonnes of contained copper, the mine plan supports a multi-decade life and a ramp-up to over 500,000 tonnes of copper per annum from 2028. Near-term production guidance for 2026 and 2027 was revised downwards, and cash costs upwards, due to conservative geotechnical parameters and development challenges.
