This Billion-Tonne Copper Discovery Changes Everything

Today I’m joined by Ian Harris, CEO of Copper Giant, to break down one of the most significant copper discoveries in recent memory. Ian walks us through the new resource update that pushes the Mocoa deposit past 1.1 billion tonnes, including a rare 190 million tonne zone at 0.94% Copper Equivalent, the kind of grade typically found deep underground, except this sits near surface. We dig into why this matters as the world heads toward the largest copper deficit in 20 years, how molybdenum elevates the project to strategic status, the geopolitical implications of operating in Colombia ahead of a major election, and why this discovery is attracting attention at the national level.
