Advanced Cu-Mo-Ag Porphyry Project – 70+ KM NNW of Astana

Advanced Cu-Mo-Ag Porphyry Project – 70+ KM NNW of Astana

Strategically located 70+ km NNW of Astana along a high-quality sealed road, this large-scale porphyry system represents a prime development opportunity. The asset hosts an established JORC Inferred Resource of 224.3 million tonnes grading 0.36% CuEq, encompassing 290,000 tonnes of copper, 86,000 tonnes of molybdenum, and 235 tonnes of silver.

A highly successful 17-hole diamond drilling program confirmed exceptional mineralized intervals, yielding an outstanding average intersection width of 101.5 meters at 0.45% CuEq. Though a completely blind deposit situated beneath 25–30 meters of soil cover, extensive magnetic surveys map out a massive 2 km footprint. Significant lateral and depth expansion targets remain wide open across the northwestern, southern, and eastern zones.

Institutional Resource & Financial Baseline

This advanced porphyry project represents a substantial, asset-backed investment opportunity in a highly stable subsoil jurisdiction. Based on extensive 2023–2024 diamond drilling campaigns, an independent JORC Inferred Resource has established a total mineralized inventory of 224,297,356 tonnes with an average copper equivalent grade of 0.36%.

The total contained in-situ metal content breaks down as follows:

  • Copper (Cu): 290,254 tonnes at an average grade of 1,294 ppm.
  • Molybdenum (Mo): 86,978 tonnes at an average grade of 387.8 ppm.
  • Silver (Ag): 235 tonnes at an average grade of 1.05 ppm.

At current global commodity valuations, the concentrated volume of co-products—specifically the clean copper stock and high-value molybdenum oxide credits—delivers robust target revenue potential. This foundational deposit volume is calculated utilizing a baseline specific gravity of 2.65 $t/m^3$. Because the open 2 km anomaly is tightly constrained within an exceptionally thick, high-grade stockwork zone, the project benefits from minimized projected strip ratios during early-stage development. Qualified institutional investors can access complete metallurgical recoveries, drill hole assay metrics, and core cross-sections upon execution of a formal Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).

1. The 2024 Commodity Benchmarks

  • Copper (Cu): ~$9,142 per metric ton (USGS / LME Average 2024)
  • Molybdenum (Mo): ~$47,000 per metric ton (LME Roasted Concentrate Average 2024)
  • Silver (Ag): ~$28.29 per troy ounce (~$909,500 per metric ton)

2. Contained In-Situ Metal Revenue Potential

Multiplying the certified JORC volumes by these benchmark values provides the total gross unextracted valuation:

  • Copper: 290,254 t × $9,142 = $2,653,492,070
  • Molybdenum: 86,978 t × $47,000 = $4,087,966,000
  • Silver: 235 t × $909,500 = $213,732,500
  • Total In-Situ Asset Value: $6,955,190,570 (~$6.95 Billion)
