Notes
Phoenix Copper Limited is a USA focused, base and precious
metals emerging producer and exploration company, initially
targeting copper and zinc production from an open pit mine from
late 2022.
Phoenix's primary operations are focused near Mackay, Idaho in
the Alder Creek mining district, at the 80% owned Empire Mine
property, which historically produced copper at grades of up to 8%,
as well as gold, silver, zinc and tungsten, from an underground
mine.
Since 2017, Phoenix has carried out extensive drill programmes
which resulted in the publication of a NI 43-101 PEA in October
2020 for an open pit heap leach solvent extraction and
electrowinning ("SX-EW") mine, which was updated in October 2020.
The contained metals in all NI 43-101 compliant categories of
resources, measured, indicated, and inferred, stand at 129,641
tonnes of copper, 355,523 ounces of gold, 10,133,772 ounces of
silver and 58,440 tonnes of zinc. Phoenix updated its economic
model in February 2021 to include the processing of all contained
metals through a two phased approach.
In addition to Empire, the district includes the historic
Horseshoe, White Knob and Blue Bird Mines, past producers of
copper, gold, silver, zinc, lead and tungsten from underground
mines. A new discovery at Red Star, 330 metres northwest of the
Empire Mine proposed open pit, has revealed high grade silver /
lead sulphide ore and from three shallow exploration drill holes. A
maiden resource of 103,000 tonnes containing 173.4 g/tonne silver,
0.85 g/tonne gold and 3.85% lead (1.6 million ounces silver
equivalent ) was reported in an NI 43-101 technical report
published in May 2019. Additionally, the district includes the
Navarre Creek Project, a volcanic hosted, precious metals target in
a 14.48 km(2) area. The Company's total land package at Empire
comprises 8,034 acres (32.51 sq kms).
At Empire, it is estimated that less than 1% of the potential
ore system has been explored to date and, accordingly, there is
significant opportunity to increase the resource through phased
exploration. The stated aim of the Company is to fund this phased
exploration through free cashflow generated by its initial mine. A
Plan of Operations in respect of the initial open pit mine was
filed with the relevant regulatory authorities in June 2021.
Phoenix also has two wholly owned cobalt properties on the Idaho
Cobalt Belt to the north of Empire. An Earn-In Agreement has been
signed with Electra Battery Materials (formerly First Cobalt
Corporation), Toronto, in respect of one of those properties.
