America’s Newest Copper Producer

OUR PURPOSE

Gunnison exists to develop and operate copper mines in Southern Arizona to produce fully Made in America finished copper cathode to directly supply American energy, defense, and manufacturing supply chains. Gunnison proudly hires locally, purchases locally, and sells its products locally. Gunnison invests in its employees, their families, and the communities around it. Gunnison operates safely and responsibly with a focus on technology and positive societal impact, while also emphasizing long-term value creation for stakeholders.

The company’s Johnson Camp Mine (JCM) is now in production, delivering 100% Made-in-America copper cathode to domestic supply chains. The operation is working with Nuton LLC, a Rio Tinto Venture, which will deploy Nuton’s bioleaching technologies to expand production and unlock the district’s sulfide potential.

A comprehensive PEA was completed on the Company’s “Gunnison Project”, which incorporates a large open pit of predominantly copper oxide mineralization approximately 2 kilometers south of JCM. The project is designed as a conventional open pit, heap leach, SX/EW operation producing 99.999% pure copper cathode intended to supply United States energy, data center, manufacturing, and defense supply chains. The project has an average annual copper cathode production of 174 million pounds (“lbs”) (87 thousand tons) for the first 15 years; enough to potentially supply over 11% of the current United States domestic refined copper metal production from mineralized material. Total copper produced 3.2 billion lbs over a 21 year mine life.
