In this episode, we chat with Richard Osmond, CEO of Element 29 Resources who are an emerging junior resource company with a highly experienced management team and board focused on exploring and growing its porphyry copper-molybdenum-silver resource deposits in Perú, one of the lowest-cost, lowest-risk mining jurisdictions globally.

Richard has over 25 years of experience in the mining sector across North America, Europe, and Scandinavia, working for companies like INCO, Falconbridge and Anglo American. Richard discusses the history of Element 29, the projects they are involved in, Peru as a mining jurisdiction, the challenges they have faced, and the leadership qualities needed for a junior miner.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Element 29 is an emerging junior resource company focused on exploring and developing porphyry copper, molybdenum, and silver deposits in Peru. The company was spun out from Globetrotters Resource Group, which spent seven years building a copper portfolio before listing in late 2020.
Peru is recognised as one of the lowest risk mining jurisdictions globally, being the second-largest copper producer. The country has a strong mining sector that contributes significantly to its economy, with a free trade agreement and bilateral investment treaties that protect foreign investments.
Elida is the flagship project of Element 29, featuring a porphyry copper-molybdenum-silver deposit. The project has shown promising initial resource estimates, and the company is currently drilling to expand the resource base and improve the quality of the starter pit.
Copper Market Outlook: There is an anticipated supply crunch in the copper market, driven by increasing demand for copper in renewable energy and technology sectors. The company expects copper prices to rise due to the imbalance between supply and demand, with a focus on making new discoveries to meet future needs.

BEST MOMENTS

"Peru is, generally speaking, it's held a position as the second largest copper producer globally... Mining makes up about 60% of Peru's exports and about 10% of the country's GDP."

"We feel that, you know, we've been looking for copper for quite a long time. We've sort of known that this copper crunch was coming."

"We outlined an inferred mineral resource estimate of about 321.7 million tons of 0.32 copper, 0.03 molybdenum, and 2.6 grams per ton silver."

"We do a lot of work on health, safety and security, implementing best practices... We want to make sure that we do best practices from a sustainability perspective."
