Botswana begins to shape up as a major destination for copper exploration
Until now, the headlines surrounding the nascent copper mining industry in Botswana have been centred only on one major new project, the Khoemacau mine.
This mine is owned by US-based and private-equity backed Cupric Canyon, which has at times mulled a listing for the Khoemacau subsidiary, but which to date has been concentrating on getting the project into production.
First copper is expected next year, with annual output of around 60,000 tonnes of concentrate planned.
With copper recently hitting four year highs in London and eight year highs in Shanghai, the timing couldn't be better.
And that's why other companies are beginning to get in on the act too.
