From The Precious Metals Summit Beaver Creek, Peter Mercer, SVP Exploration, Alaska at Vizsla Copper Corp. (TSXV: VCU), joins us to discuss why copper’s strength may only be beginning as electric vehicles, batteries and cleaner technologies drive demand while mines become deeper and more difficult to develop.
Peter explains Vizsla Copper’s transaction with Agnico Eagle to acquire the Delta and Helm Bay projects in Alaska. Agnico Eagle is expected to own approximately 19.9% of Vizsla Copper when the transaction closes, increasing to approximately 22% following shareholder approval.
We also discuss the newly staked Miller copper-gold project near the Mount Milligan mine and Vizsla Copper’s largest exploration program to date, with 40,000 metres of drilling across Alaska and British Columbia.
