CopperTech Metals is focused on a transformative growth strategy to significantly expand copper production capacity across its mining and processing assets
We aim to deliver attractive returns to our stockholders through commodity cycles, underpinned by high-grade resources, integrated infrastructure, and strong operating practices. Our approach balances expansion with capital discipline, ensuring long-term value creation while supporting the rising demand for copper driven by technology, infrastructure, and electrification.
A growth strategy designed to last
CopperTech Metals is building a scaled copper and cobalt business anchored in high-quality assets and long-term growth potential. Our strategy aims to focus on advancing development across the Aggregated Operational Sites, with particular emphasis on unlocking the highest-quality sections of the orebody through the Konkola Deeps Mine Project.
We will be investing in infrastructure upgrades, and targeted capital projects to support sustainable production growth, while progressing exploration programs that aim to strengthen resource confidence and identify new opportunities through infill drilling and Al-enabled geological analysis. Alongside this, we will continue to evaluate operational improvements and optimization opportunities to enhance efficiency and resilience. Supported by existing infrastructure, strong regional relationships, and a focus on reliable power supply, our approach aims to build durable production capable of meeting growing global demand.
Konkola Plc operates in Zambia, one of the world’s most established copper mining jurisdictions. As of 2026, Zambia ranks as the 7th largest global copper producer and the second largest in Africa, with copper exports representing 15% of GDP and over 70% of total exports as of late 2025. The Fraser Institute ranked Zambia 25th globally on the Investment Attractiveness Index and third among African jurisdictions, reflecting strong geological potential and supportive government policies.
The Government of the Republic of Zambia aims to triple national copper production to 3 Mt annually by 2031 and enhance enabling infrastructure. The development of the Aggregated Operational Sites aligns with these goals, while our long-standing community relationships focus on safety and environmental performance, and skilled local workforce reinforce a sustainable license to operate and long-term production continuity.
Konkola Plc continues to extend the life of its Aggregated Operational Sites through active exploration in a highly productive copper zone. Ongoing campaigns target the Konkola Deep Mine Project, Tailings Dam 05 near Nchanga, and the Lubengele tailings dam, aiming to enhance long-term mine planning and value creation. Exploration programs combine traditional drilling with Al-driven geological surveys that aim to identify additional resources and improve classifications.
These efforts ensure that the platform's exploration activities continually replenish Mineral Resources supporting sustained production growth and maximizing the long- term potential of one of the world's most prolific copper operations.
