How Water Rights Can Help Fund A 100K Ton Copper Project | Christian Easterday – Hot Chili

In this interview, Christian Easterday, Managing Director & CEO of Hot Chili Limited (TSXV: HCH), outlines the company’s dual focus on copper development and strategic water assets.

Easterday begins by discussing their Costa Fuego copper project in Chile, highlighting its advantageous low altitude location. The project aims to produce 100,000 tons of copper annually, positioning Hot Chili as a significant future copper producer.

The CEO emphasizes their unique water rights and the development of their Wasco Water business, which could provide substantial funding for the copper project through strategic partnerships. 

Looking ahead, Easterday outlines two key milestones for Q1 2025: prefeasibility studies for both Costa Fuego and the Wasco Water business. Notably, Hot Chili is positioned as one of only five major independent copper developers capable of production by the end of the decade.
