Copper is ‘the New Oil’ & Low Inventories Could Benefit Newly-listed Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) as it spins out news on its 3 promising copper projects

There’s a perfect storm sweeping copper to new highs.

When CV-19 showed up, prices dipped…but then they took off.

The last year has been amazing for copper.

Prices for the red metal recently broke just through the $10,000 mark for the second time in a decade.

Even with the current volatility, the Bank of America believes copper could more than double to $20,000 per tonne by 2025.1

Why?

Because we’re using more copper than ever today, but copper inventories are at levels seen 15 years ago.2

Meanwhile, there are multiple drivers for growing copper demand as a base metal: 

  • Vaccines and boosters are rolling out3
  • The global economy is recovering4
  • Government stimulus is increasing5

That all adds up to a major tailwind that’s helped copper stocks like Taseko Mines and Copperbank Resources generate big value in the past year.

While those stock gains have already come and gone, newly-listed Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) is fresh on the scene to benefit from the hot copper market.

Especially since there’s another MAJOR factor behind the increases in copper demand and prices…

…the rise of electric vehicles (EVs).

EVs rely heavily on copper. They use 3X to 4X as much copper wiring as a traditional vehicle.6

With EV sales expected to skyrocket in the near term, copper demand and prices are expected to skyrocket too.

But EVs are just one catalyst driving copper to new highs.

Copper is also essential to our future existence since renewable energy technologies also need lots of copper.

The International Energy Agency says copper will remain the most widely used metal in renewable energy technologies.7

Goldman Sachs predicts that by 2030, copper demand will surge by nearly 600%.8

That’s all good news for copper miners and their stocks. 

But which copper stocks are likely to get the biggest boost from this perfect storm?

The ones that have a proven team and enough strategic projects in hot regions so they can produce a steady stream of news.

That’s why investors need to keep a close eye on newly-listed Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA)

Meet Today's Hot New Copper Stock

Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) ticks all the boxes for a potential breakout copper stock:

  • Newly listed discovery-focused company (so lots of upside potential)
  • Proven team with street cred (more on that later)
  • 3 large copper projects (2.9X the size of Manhattan Island combined)
  • Located in Nevada, Arizona & Idaho (3 of the world’s top regions for mining investment attractiveness)9
  • Plus 2 gold projects (just to sweeten the pot)

They’re also fully financed to complete their aggressive exploration programs (last financing was $9M).10

Expect Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) to be grabbing and holding the market’s attention for months to come with all these upcoming catalysts.

Reason #1 - Riding the Near-Term & Long-Term Copper Wave

The copper boom over the last year isn’t some SHORT-term market blip.

In the NEAR-term, copper has already surpassed Goldman Sachs’ price forecast of $10,000 per tonne copper in 2022, marking the second time in history the metal has reached 5 digits.

Over the LONG-term, major copper demand growth is expected to come from electric vehicles (EVs).

Last year, EV sales were around 3 million.

By 2040, they could be as high as 70 million.12

That’s a 23X increase in EV sales!

That means huge copper demand increases.

There’s also the extra demand for copper wires in EV charging stations and infrastructure.  

Wood Mackenzie estimates that by 2030 there will be 20+ million global EV charging points.13

That ALONE would consume 250% more copper than in 201914.

Then there’s more copper demand expected from the rise of other tech advances, like renewable energy infrastructure.15

But growing copper demand doesn’t just come from new sectors. Copper makes up the very backbone of our modern way of life. 

It’s in most everything that has wires: electric motors, generators, buildings and houses, planes, cars, and every electronic device you can imagine.16

So it only makes sense that: 

  • Copper demand will continue to grow
  • That demand will support strong copper prices
  • Copper companies will be rewarded for exploring, finding and producing more copper…in the NEAR-term and the LONG-term.

That’s great news for Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) as it continues to aggressively move its copper projects forward.

Before we dive into Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) copper projects, the table below shows some of their world-class neighbors and copper companies they’re working to be like.

While these stocks could see price gains from the copper boom, they’re already further along in their business life cycle with higher stock prices.

That means Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) represents greater upside potential.

Reason #2 - Three Very Promising Copper Projects in Development

Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) 3 copper projects are in the world’s top 2 regions for mining investment attractiveness:21

  • #1 = Nevada
  • #2 = Arizona

COPPER PROJECT #1: DEWDROP MOON PROJECT

This is a large Nevada-based project (18.5 square miles; 48 km2). 

The appeal of the district is confirmed by the active mid-tier and major mining companies nearby.

The neighboring Pumpkin Hollow Mine (to the north of Zacapa’s project) went online in 2019, making it America’s first new copper producer in the last decade.22

The mine is projected to average 60 million pounds of copper annually in years 1-5, and 50 million pounds annually after that.23

Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) Dewdrop Moon project is road-accessible on permit friendly BLM claims with drill-ready targets.

Sampling has already identified encouraging results, including:

  • 4.3% copper associated with exotic copper-oxide (2020)
  • Outcropping epithermal gold targets with up to 3.7 grams per ton (g/t) gold (2020) 
  • Additional copper and gold anomalous zones with up to 3.8% copper and 2.8 g/t gold (2021) 

Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) geological model for the project is analogous to 2 significant copper resources to the northwest:

  • Yerington: 128 million tons (Measured + Indicated)24
  • Ann Mason: 2.2 billion tonnes (Measured + Indicated)25

COPPER PROJECT #2: RED TOP

This project is in the “Copper State” – Arizona – which produces 75% of all the copper mined in the US.26

Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) Red Top project is surrounded by significant mines and giant copper deposits, including:

  • Resolution (Rio Tinto/BHP)
  • Superior East (Rio Tinto/BHP)
  • Pinto Valley (Capstone Mining)
  • Carlota (KGHM International)
  • Ray (ASARCO)
  • San Manuel-Kalamazoo (BHP)
  • Florence (Taseko)

The Resolution-Globe-Miami area includes 4+ giant porphyry copper deposits that are over 1 billion tons each and over 7.4 billion tons @ 0.73% copper (that means 120 billion pounds of copper!)27

Just 5 miles (8 km) to the southwest of Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) Red Top project, the world’s 2 largest mining companies – Rio Tinto and BHP28– are developing the Resolution Copper deposit.

Resolution Copper is one of the largest undeveloped copper projects in the world.29

It has an estimated copper resource of 1.8 billion tonnes at an average grade of 1.5% copper.

That means this single nearby mine has the potential to supply nearly 25% of all the copper demand in the US.30

Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) Red Top project is drill ready and already permitted. 

The company is expecting drill results in Q4 2021, and they’re starting a 3-hole program later in October.

So watch for ongoing news flow from this project.

COPPER PROJECT #3: PEARL

This project is located directly south of Zacapa Resources’ Red Top copper project. 

It’s also right next to BHP’s former San Manuel/Kalamazoo mine, which operated from 1955 to 1999, and was once the world’s largest underground copper mine31.

Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) Pearl project borders active FreeportMcMoRan and BHP claims.

The Pearl project features favorable host rocks with up to 3.8% copper at surface and outcropping copper oxides that extend for over 650 meters (~2,132 feet).

Upcoming news flow will come from mapping and sampling at Pearl in Q4 2021.

Reason #3 - Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) is Also in One of the World's Most Important Gold Districts

Sweetening (and diversifying) the pot is Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) 2 gold projects, 1 of which is in America’s largest gold-producing state, Nevada, which:

  • Produces over 80% of the gold mined in the US
  • Averaged ~5.5 million ounces of gold production per year over the past decade32
  • Has 28 active gold mines33

Better yet, Nevada is home to recent high-grade gold discoveries.

The world-class Goldrush deposit – a JV between Barrick and Newmont (Nevada Gold Mines) – will start producing in 202134, with an expected mine life of 21 years and annual gold production targeted at 450,000 ounces.35

Right next to Goldrush is the Fourmile deposit.

Each of these deposits could produce 5 million ounces of gold over a decade.

Nevada also enables small gold mining companies to join the big players…like when Corvus Gold more than doubled their market cap in the last year and a half and got bought out by AngloGold Ashanti for their Nevada assets for US$370M in September.36

Nevada is THE place to be for gold exploration and production…and Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) is actively developing its project there.

Before we look at how Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) is in one of Nevada’s most prolific gold trends, the table below shows some of their world-class neighbors and gold companies they’re working to be like.

As with the copper stocks we looked at earlier, these companies have higher share prices due to being further along in their business life cycles, which means Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) once again represents greater potential for large share price gains.

Reason #4 - Drilling Two Very Promising Gold Projects

Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) South Bullfrog gold project is in Nevada’s major Walker Lane gold trend in an increasingly active gold district that includes:

  • The historic Bullfrog Mine, which produced 2.33 million ounces (Moz) gold
  • Corvus’ North Bullfrog deposit (2.1 Moz gold M+I)37 and Mother Lode deposit (1.55 Moz gold M+I)38
  • Recent exploration success by Corvus at Lynnda Strip (108.2m @ 1.13 g/t gold, 114.3m @ 0.96 g/t gold and 100.6m @ 0.94 g/t gold)39
  • Augusta Gold’s C$25 million exploration program underway to the west at Bullfrog’s 1 Moz maiden gold source40

Several of the area’s faults cut through Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) South Bullfrog gold project property.

 The company has already completed an airborne geophysical survey, a LiDAR survey, and an extensive mapping and sampling program.

Expect a stream of market news from:

  • Their ground geophysics program planned for Q4 2021 to ensure they’re choosing the right targets to drill
  • Their 10,000-meter drill program expected to start in Q1 2022

GOLD PROJECT #2: MILLER MOUNTAIN

Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) exciting Miller Mountain gold project in Idaho has multiple impressive high-grade rock chip samples of up to 27 g/t gold.

The 7.7-square-mile (20 km2) property is 3 miles (5 km) northeast of the Boise Basin, which produced ~2.9 Moz gold.41

The project lies in the regional Trans Challis fault system, which contains numerous epithermal gold-silver deposits and over 3 Moz of historic production.

The Miller Mountain project covers a ~4.7-mile (7.5-km) strike length of the fault system.

Historic drilling on the property intercepted up to 22 feet (6.7m) of 23.7 g/t gold.42

The Miller Mountain project also hosts historical resources at the Miller and Specimen mines.

Zacapa Resources (TSXV:ZACATSXV:ZACA) will be spinning out news about the project over the coming months related to:

  • Mapping, sampling and augering in Q4 2021
  • 2,500-meter drilling program in Q2 2022
