Executive Summary
Latitude Resources plc and its subsidiaries are a mineral exploration and mining group. The Company was founded in April 2000 to explore for and develop base metal deposits in Latin America. The Groups operations and management were established in Santiago, Chile and since January 2004, corporate, administrative and financial services have been based in London. The Companys ordinary shares have been traded on OFEX since July 2000. In May 2005 the Company changed its name from Latin American Copper plc to Latitude Resources plc to reflect a new strategy seeking to expand the range of activities undertaken by the Group. The Group has five copper-gold projects and one copper-molybdenum project at the exploration stage in Chile. The copper-gold exploration projects are located in the highly prospective Chilean Coastal Cordillera region. The Company is specifically exploring for Iron Oxide Copper Gold targets similar to the Chilean Candelaria mine currently operated by Phelps Dodge Corporation. The Company also has a 13% shareholding in the North American gold development company, Western GoldFields. Western GoldFields is in the process of bringing the Mesquite gold mine in California back into production and also holds a portfolio of exploration projects in Nevada and California. In addition, as part of its future strategy and subject to the resources available to the Group, the Company intends to seek other opportunities in the mining sector where the management team believes it can add value, via a combination of finance and expertise.
