About Copper
Copper is a red-orange coloured metallic element in its pure form. It is highly conductive to heat and electricity, and is physically soft and malleable. Copper has been used for various purposes dating back at least 10,000 years. Today, it is mostly used by the electrical industry to make wires, cables, and other electronic components and is the key component. The metal is widely seen as a green-energy transition material, in part because of the wiring needed for electric cars. EVs can use up to 80kg of copper, four times the amount typically used in combustion engine vehicles.

About the Mumbezhi Copper Project
The Mumbezhi Copper Project (85% Prospect; moving to 90%) ( Mumbezhi ) is situated in the world-class Central African Copperbelt region of north-western Zambia. Located on two granted Large Scale Mining Licences (39445-HQ-LML; 39465-HQ-LML), Mumbezhi covers approximately 356 square kilometres of highly prospective tenure which lies in close proximity to several major mines which are hosted in similar geological settings.
Prospect’s Phase 1 drilling during 2024 validated the growth potential of the significant copper mineralisation at Nyungu Central and delivered confidence in a potential future large-scale, open pit mining development at Mumbezhi.
Extensive Phase 2 drilling was undertaken during 2025. In February 2026, Prospect delivered an updated Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate for Mumbezhi of 173.8Mt @ 0.44% Cu (0.50% CuEq) for 772kt contained copper.
Phase 3 drilling is expected to commence in Q2 2026.
