Vizsla Copper

Overview

Vizsla Copper (TSXV:VCU, OTCQB:VCUFF) is a mineral exploration and development company focusing on its promising copper assets in British Columbia, Canada. Vizsla Copper is a spinout of highly successful Vizsla Silver (TSXV:VZLA, NYSE:VZLA). The company’s flagship Woodjam copper project is a significant district-scale opportunity with the potential to become a world-class copper producer. Vizsla Copper’s additional assets build upon its portfolio of copper projects in BC, a tier 1, mining-friendly jurisdiction.

Copper has earned a reputation as “the new gold” due to its strategic role in the energy transition. Rising demand and tightening supply led to copper reaching an all-time high in March 2022. While there has been some correction since then, the forecast for copper remains strong for its important role in clean energy development.

Vizsla Copper is committed to socially responsible exploration by prioritizing environmentally sustainable practices and community involvement.

The company’s flagship Woodjam copper project covers over 64,000 hectares with several identified and untested targets. Historical inferred resource estimates for the project indicate 1.7 billion pounds of copper and 968,000 ounces of gold.

Copper projects in BC have been gaining significant attention from investors due to the jurisdiction's mining-friendly laws and unexplored or underexplored projects. BHP, Teck and Boliden have all recently invested in junior exploration companies with properties across the province. The company’s additional projects, Carruthers Pass and Blueberry, are also within BC and create additional opportunities to improve shareholder value.

Vizsla’s acquisition of the Consolidated Woodjam Copper Corp. in December 2022 was a transformational acquisition for the company, allowing Vizsla Copper to significantly improve its copper holdings as it prepares to meet the impending copper supply shortage.

The company also completed the acquisition of a 100 percent interest in the 37,466-hectare Copperview project in the Aspen Grove area of south-central British Columbia from Donald Rippon of Mineworks Ventures.

An experienced team of managers with expertise throughout the natural resource industry leads the company toward its goal. Craig Parry, executive chairman, talked about the Vizsla Copper management team in an interview, “We've been able to recruit some absolute superstars. Looking around for good geologists these days, they're in red hot demand. It's hard to find those people.” Parry and Steve Blower, VP exploration for Vizsla Copper, were awarded the AME 2022 Colin Spence Award for excellence in global mineral exploration for their integral roles in the discovery of the Hurricane uranium deposit during their time with IsoEnergy Ltd.
