Raptor Metals: High-grade Copper in a Tier-1 Jurisdiction

Raptor Metals (ASX:RAP) is a junior explorer advancing high-potential copper and polymetallic assets in Canada’s renowned Bathurst Mining Camp, alongside gold projects in Western Australia’s Eastern Goldfields. The company is strategically positioned to benefit from surging global demand for critical metals, pursuing a focused program of resource validation, expansion, and discovery.

Its flagship Chester Project, in which Raptor holds 100 percent interest, lies within the Tier-1 Bathurst Mining Camp—a prolific VMS district that has historically produced over 475 Mt of base metals across more than 46 deposits, including the world-famous Brunswick No. 12 mine. Chester already hosts a JORC 2012 MRE of 6.685 Mt at 1.07 percent copper from surface, underpinned by high-confidence Indicated resources and significant polymetallic credits.

The Chester deposit remains open along strike and at depth, presenting immediate upside potential. Raptor’s disciplined exploration approach is designed to unlock additional resources and advance discovery, positioning the company to deliver value as demand for copper, zinc, and associated critical metals accelerates globally.
