Dr Hoxha added "I am pleased and at the same time very excited to take on this great opportunity as Vice President of Exploration for Magna Mining. The Shakespeare Mine resource has great expansion potential and there is no shortage of highly prospective Ni-Cu-PGM targets on the regional Shakespeare property. The Shakespeare land package owned by the Company has a greater than 20km strike length and only a very small portion has been explored for Ni-Cu-PGE deposits. Magna has an experienced management team of professionals that have extensive experience in base metal exploration and mining, and they have a great vision for the Company. I am looking forward to being a full-time part of the team."

ASX Copper Stocks: 5 Biggest Companies in 2024

Copper saw sinking prices toward the end of 2023, but things began to shift in early 2024 as treatment charges at Chinese refiners dropped to single digit lows, causing some to cut production.

This led to increased momentum in the price of copper as refined product supply became increasingly tight for consumers of the base metal. In April, the price broke US$10,000 per tonne and set new all time highs on both the London Metals Exchange and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.

Copper has since retreated and has been trading in the US$8,800 to US$9,200 range mark in August and September. Despite recent pullbacks, prices are likely to see gains as markets supply deficits are expected over the next several years as demand from energy transition sectors continue to grow.
