Zambia Copper Investments isn't sure what it wants to do, but it knows it likes copper. The company's primary asset had been a 28% stake in copper and cobalt mining company Konkola Copper Mines (KCM), but it sold that investment to another KCM shareholder, Vedanta Resources, in 2008. The following year it spent about $10 million for an 80% stake in African Copper PLC. Copperbelt Development Foundation has a 44% stake in Zambia Copper.

GWR Resources Inc. is a Canadian junior exploration company focused on exploration for gold and other valuable mineral deposits in Canada. The Company was incorporated in British Columbia and trades on the TSX Venture Exchange (Symbol: GWQ). GWR's experienced management and technical teams are committed to establishing the existence of mineable gold, copper, magnetite and possibly other metals within these highly prospective areas. GWR has two very prospective properties, both having excellent infrastructure, located near townsites with a skilled workforce, rail, road and power capacity.Our flagship project is the Lac La Hache gold-copper porphyry property located within the Quesnel Trough in British Columbia, the largest porphyry trend in Canada. The Lac La Hache project covers approximately 50 km2 and contains numerous drilled prospects including two mineralized zones with (non-43-101 compliant) estimated reserves. The property is situated between producing mines at Imperial Metals' Mt. Polley Copper-Gold Mine and New Gold Inc.'s New Afton Copper-Gold project (Teck-Cominco's legendary Afton mine). Drilling is ongoing for the purposes of expanding existing mineralized zones and discovering new zones.In July, 2010, the Company signed an option agreement to acquire 100% interest in the Sainte Sabine project, a high-potential gold property located within the Bellechasse Mineral Belt in southeastern Quebec. Sainte Sabine is both a gold and gold-polymetallic (Au-Ag-Zn-Cu) property and is located approximately 100 km southeast of Quebec City, within the Beauce region. The property lies immediately along and across strike of several known zones currently being tested by Golden Hope Mines on their Bellechasse Project. New airborne geophysical and ground geochemical surveys will be completed by GWR to improve exploration vectoring on this exciting project.

Los Andes Copper is a Canadian exploration and development company that holds an interest in the advanced stage Vizcachitas porphyry copper-molybdenum deposit in Region V, Chile. Vizcachitas is located in an area of excellent infrastructure including available water, road access to the site, power approximately 40km away and ports and smelters within 200km. The deposit has the potential for a low strip open pit operation. The Vizcachitas deposit is located in the prolific central Chile Late Miocene-Pliocene metallogenic belt that also includes the world class El Teniente (78.64Mt Cu), Los Pelambres/El Pachon (26.42Mt Cu) and Rio Blanco/Los Bronces (52.43Mt Cu) deposits. The geology is typical of Andean porphyry copper molybdenum deposits and shares several characteristics with other deposits in the belt. To date, an interim NI43-101 compliant indicated sulphide resource of 515M tonnes grading 0.39% Cu and 0.011% Mo (0.46% CuEq), and an inferred sulphide resource of 572M tonnes grading 0.34% Cu and 0.012% Mo (0.41% CuEq) at a 0.3% CuEq. cut-off have been defined on the property. These resources represent a total of 8.72 billion pounds of contained copper and 276 million pounds of contained molybdenum. A small resource of oxide/transitional material is also present. Los Andes continues drilling on the property to expand these resources. Recently, Los Andes engaged AMEC to undertake a scoping study/preliminary economic analysis. This study is expected to be completed by March 2009.

Mediterranean Resources Ltd (TSX -- MNR) is developing four projects located along the 12 kilometre Yusufeli Property in northeastern Turkey. Current NI 43-101 compliant resource estimates for the Tac and Corak projects, 8 km apart, total 1.58 million ounces gold Indicated and 0.29 million ounces Inferred. These estimates, completed in April 2009 by SRK Consulting are constrained within Whittle pit shells, providing a materially enhanced level of confidence in the economic potential of the Yusufeli Property. The new resource estimates demonstrate that both Corak and Tac are amenable to open-pit mining with a reasonable assumption of economic viability.To date, less than 20% of the 100 square kilometre Yusufeli Property has received drill exploration, and several targets remain to be addressed. In December 2008 MNR announced initial drilling results from the Celtik project area, located at the eastern end of the Yusufeli Trend. Assays from three holes confirmed a significant new discovery at Celtik, with multiple intercepts from surface to 314 metres. An intercept of 18.4 metres assayed 6.51 g/t gold and 0.9% copper.MNR acquired the Corak and Tac properties from Teck in 2005, and currently controls these core areas under a mining license. Acquisition of contiguous areas has been conducted by obtaining new exploration licenses. The properties are well serviced by roads, water and access to power, providing for highly cost-effective exploration. To date, exploration costs have averaged less than $8 per ounce. As well, Turkey's modernized mining code and permitting process provide attractive incentives to exploration ventures, including rebates on expenditures.MNR's plans for 2009 include 6,000 metres of diamond core drilling to an average depth of 300 metres at Corak and Tac to upgrade and expand resources within the new pit shell modeling, and a drill program to follow up on the significant new discovery at Celtik.
