FAQ

Why Neutral?

While the concession allows for extraction, initial developments and permit requirements may delay impactful results. For example, similar concessions in the past faced hurdles due to environmental assessments affecting quick project execution.

How important is it?

The news is important for BDNNY as it reflects the potential movement in the copper market, affecting companies involved in copper extraction or production. The operational advancements by a major player may create shifts in supply dynamics and pricing.

Why Long Term?

The true value generated from the Laver deposit will take time, as it requires extensive exploration and environmental evaluations before the project can commence production.
