About Great Southern Copper
Great Southern Copper PLC is a UK-listed mineral exploration company focused
on the discovery of copper-gold-silver deposits in Chile. The Company has the
option to acquire mining rights to 100% of Especularita project in the
under-explored coastal belt of Chile that is prospective for large scale
copper-gold-silver deposits. Chile is a globally significant mining
jurisdiction being the world's largest producer and exporter of copper.
The Especularita Project is located in the coastal metallogenic belt of Chile
which hosts significant copper mines and deposits, including Teck's Carmen de
Andacollo copper mine, and boasts excellent access to infrastructure such as
roads, power and ports. Significant historical small-scale and artisanal
workings for both copper and gold are readily evident in the exploration
project area. The coastal belt offers deposit type optionality for copper
including porphyry and IOCG style deposits as well as newly recognised
intrusive-related copper and gold deposits.
Great Southern Copper is strategically positioned to support the global market
for copper - a critical battery metal in the clean energy transition around
the world. The Company is actively engaged in exploration and evaluation work
programmes targeting both large tonnage, low to medium grade Cu-Au as well as
