Abstract

Arizona Sonoran Copper is developing the Cactus project, a brownfield project near Casa Grande, Arizona, with a large-scale porphyry copper resource. The project includes open pit and sublevel caving operations, benefiting from state-led permitting and existing infrastructure. Recent updates, including the acquisition of MainSpring, have improved project economics, with a new PEA estimating copper production of 116,000 t/y over 20 years. Metallurgical testing has shown promising copper recovery rates, and the company is preparing for a new PFS in 2025. [Extracted from the article]
