Further information on CMO and the Oumejrane Mine

The Oumejrane mine (the "Oumejrane Mine"), owned 100% by CMO, is a producing and profitable copper mine situated in the Eastern Anti-Atlas of Morocco, which has been operational since 2014. For the year ended 31 December 2023, revenue at the Oumejrane copper mine was US$28.0m.

The Oumejrane Mine, employing approximately 300 people, operates two active open pit mines and four underground mines, with a processing capacity of 1,000 tonnes per day through a conventional circuit involving crushing, grinding, and flotation. Its process plant produces 21% grade copper concentrates. It is well located alongside a national road with well-established mining, processing and site infrastructure, including grid provided power. In addition, CMO owns four exploitation licenses covering a substantial area of 202 square km.

The Company along with its funders and advisers have carried out an extensive due diligence process on the Oumejrane Mine and CMO.
