Antipa Minerals Ltd (ASX: AZY) (Antipa or the Company) is a leading mineral exploration company with a proven track record of discovering world-class gold-copper deposits in the highly prospective Paterson Province of Western Australia. The Company remains focused on advancing its exploration and development programmes to unlock the full potential of this richly endowed region, which offers substantial opportunities for profitable mining operations. Antipa’s combined tenement holdings cover over 3,900km² and host total attributable Mineral Resources of 2.42 million ounces (Moz) of gold, 84,000 tonnes (t) of copper, and 661 thousand ounces (koz) of silver, situated in a region home to Greatland Gold's Telfer mine and 22Mtpa processing facility, as well as recent large gold-copper discoveries including Rio Tinto’s Winu and Greatland Gold’s Havieron.
Antipa’s exploration success includes the discovery of several significant mineral deposits within its tenements, notably the 100%-owned flagship, Minyari Dome Gold-Copper Project (Minyari Dome Project). The Minyari Dome Project currently hosts a 2.3 Moz gold Mineral Resource at 1.5 grams per tonne (g/t) plus copper, silver and cobalt (2024 MRE). An Updated Scoping Study for the Minyari Dome Project indicated the potential for a substantial standalone development opportunity with further upside potential.
An ongoing ambitious drilling programme aimed at rapid and substantial growth of the existing gold-copper resources at Minyari Dome is designed to enhance the value of the current development opportunity while also targeting new significant gold-copper discoveries.
The Minyari Dome Project is complemented by two additional large-scale growth projects covering over 3,000km², which have attracted major mining companies through multi-million-dollar farm-in and joint venture arrangements: - Wilki Project (100% Antipa): Newmont farming-in - Paterson Project (100% Antipa): IGO farming-in
Antipa is well-positioned to continue its resource growth and project development trajectory targeting significant value creation for its shareholders through focused exploration and sensible development in one of the world's most promising gold-copper regions.
