The Company has projects in the Paterson and Murchison regions of Western Australia, that are host to a number of base metals deposits with copper and gold mineralisation.
Paterson Copper Projects
This portfolio of copper projects comprises the Nifty Copper Complex, Maroochydore Copper Project and Paterson Exploration Project
The Nifty Copper Complex (“Nifty”) is located on the western edge of the Great Sandy Desert in the Paterson region of Western Australia, approximately 350km southeast of Port Hedland. Nifty has a Mineral Resource Estimate of 1,038,000 tonnes of contained copper and a mineral inventory of 91,000 tonnes of contained copper in existing leach pads. Cyprium is focused on redeveloping Nifty, which has the advantage of significant invested capital, data from a long operating history, large-scale resources, current operational approvals and recent investment in the property.
The Maroochydore deposit is located ~85km southeast of Nifty and hosts a Mineral Resource Estimate of 1,595,000 tonnes of contained copper in predominantly near-surface primary sulphides.
Cyprium holds the highly prospective 1,938km2 Paterson Exploration Project, one of the largest underexplored greenfield copper footprints in Western Australia. ~$24 million was invested in exploration by IGO (ASX: IGO) in the period 2020 to 2025, generating a high-quality dataset and multiple compelling targets complementary to Cyprium’s flagship Nifty Copper Complex. Cyprium is currently completing a strategic review of the IGO-generated database.
Murchison Copper-Gold Project
Cyprium’s Cue Project is an 80% Cyprium / 20% Ramelius Resources Joint Venture with respect to 118km2 of tenure in the Murchison region. The project comprises four mining leases and nine exploration licences. The project hosts a Mineral Resource Estimate on the Hollandaire mining lease of 2.8Mt @ 1.9% Cu, 0.32 g/t Au and 6.41 g/t Ag.
