Developing deposits of gold, silver, copper,
and a host of critical minerals
Copper is a versatile metal renowned for its excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, making it one of the best conductors available. Its high malleability and ductility allow it to be easily shaped into wire and other forms.
Copper as a product
Additionally, copper has antimicrobial properties that inhibit the growth of bacteria and pathogens, enhancing its value in healthcare settings.
These properties make copper essential for various industries, including electrical, plumbing, and construction. As we transition to a green economy, demand for copper is expected to soar, particularly for use in electric vehicles and wind turbines—not to mention electricity transmission.

If Dalradian’s multi-metal project receives planning approval, it expects to produce 15,000 tonnes of copper over the mine’s 20-25-year lifespan.
What does 15,000 tonnes of copper look like?
