Project Overview
The Kasempa Copper Deposit, located in Northwestern Province, Zambia, represents a significant opportunity for long-term copper supply to the European industrial sector. With historical grades ranging from 4.5% to 15% Cu, the project demonstrates exceptional resource quality.
Strategic positioning on the Lobito Corridor provides efficient logistics to Atlantic ports, reducing export costs and transit times while enhancing supply chain resilience for German and EU industries.
Resource Potential
The Kasempa deposit exhibits exceptional grade characteristics, with historical data indicating copper grades ranging from 4.5% to as high as 15.0% Cu. This high-grade profile positions the project as a globally competitive asset.
Grade Distribution
Grade data based on preliminary technical assessments and historical geological surveys.
