Copper - an essential commodity for decarbonization initiatives
Introducing Kobrea
Kobrea Exploration Corp. is a mineral exploration & development company focused on the acquisition and exploration of base metal projects in North and South America.
Kobrea Exploration Corp. holds the right to earn a 100% interest in the Western Malargüe Copper Projects situated in western Mendoza province, Argentina. The 73,334-hectare land position lies within the Western Malargüe Mining District (WMMD), an area that has tremendous geological potential for copper porphyry deposits and was only recently opened to exploration and mining.
As a first mover in this new mining district, Kobrea has secured some of the most prospective ground for copper and copper-gold porphyry deposits in the WMMD, at a time where socio-economic conditions are improving and mineral exploration and development is in favour.
Recognizing the pivotal role of copper in decarbonization efforts, Kobrea is dedicated to unlocking the true value of this commodity by ensuring a domestic supply within superior mining jurisdictions. The demand for copper products is surging, driven by growing applications in solar, wind, power generation, EV/EV battery transitions, and bioenergy industries. With the imminent threat of supply deficits, there is a compelling push for the domestic supply of critical metals.

This is our Philosophy…
Copper is at the forefront of the race for decarbonization. Its application across alternative energy sectors is pivotal in reaching emissions targets set out around the world. With major mines being depleted or shut down across the globe, and the lack of new mines coming online, demand is outstripping supply and is projected to stay this way for the foreseeable future. We must find and build new mines to fill this void for society to achieve a low-carbon economy. We at Kobrea believe exploration and acquisitions in mining-friendly jurisdictions are necessary, and advancing our portfolio of top-tier copper projects is the first step toward addressing this global challenge.
