Llahuin Copper-Gold-Moly Project
- Mineral Resource Estimate – 218Mt @ 0.38% CuEq and growing – Updated July 2025
- Llahuin is located within a very large mineralised system, noting the El Espino Copper/Gold Mine development 8km west, owned by Pucobre a large Chilean copper producer.
- Llahuin Copper-Gold Presentation – June 2026
Los Pumas Manganese Project
- Mineral Resource Estimate (Updated March 2023) – 30.2Mt @ 6.24% Mn
- Located 175 km inland from the Port of Arica and is a multiple layered tabular style manganese occurrence with a surface expression over 3.6km in length.

🔘 Llahuin MRE ASX Release – July 2025
⚒️ UPDATED LLAHUIN MRE HIGHLIGHTS
- Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for the Llahuin Copper-Gold Project of 218Mt at an average grade of 0.38% CuEq
- MRE is across three deposits, with strong potential to define further resources (refer to new Exploration Target)
- Progressing towards mine scale open pit configuration
- Drilling at Ferro Central, Ferro South and Cerro Targets began Q2 2026.
- Drilling at the Southern Porphyry Target began in September 2025.
⚒️ Southern Hemisphere’s Chairman Mr Mark Stowell commented:
“We are delighted to report this Mineral Resource update which is a compliment to our team’s work over the past 4 years at Llahuin.
The JORC Resource underpins the future potential of this project over a substantial strike of ~4km with our shallow drilling adding to the from- surface resources and prospects. This does two things, first: to continue advancing towards mine scale and secondly: the potential of this system that can produce large tonnages at surface over such strike length has a high probability of substantial copper endowment at higher grades deeper. We will initially test this at the Curiosity-Southern Porphyry scheduled for drilling in Q4 2025 with FMR Resources Limited (ASX: FMR).
We see considerable scope for resource growth at Cerro-Ferro including the Ferro West MT target, and the recent discovery at Ferro South given shallow drilling to date in these areas. Our Exploration Target is ~260-340Mt in addition to the 218Mt JORC Resource.”
