Drive to Unlock Copper and Cobalt Growth in the DRC

MRR Mining Resources Limited, well-established operator and developer of high potential copper and cobalt projects in the DRC, continues the highly competitive global investor search process, which was initiated last year, after a strategic review. This is part of a planned transition aimed at securing the right partners to continue MRR Mining’s successful legacy in the DRC.

MRR Mining has a well-established presence in the DRC with existing operations and advanced, high-quality developments Etoile Phase II and Mutoshi project, which is positioned to become a major new source of supply in the region. Together, they will contribute a total annual designed capacity of 75,000 tonnes of copper and 20,000 tonnes of cobalt.

Operations continue, in slow-progress mode pending the conclusion of the ongoing investor process, with MRR Mining working collaboratively with DRC officials to reach a speedy conclusion. The priority of the leadership team remains continuing to be a significant economic and social contributor to the DRC and all stakeholders.

Given the confidentiality of this process, MRR Mining will share further details when appropriate.
