ABOUT C3 METALS INC.
C3 Metals Inc. is a mineral exploration company focused on creating substantive value for its
shareholders through the discovery and development of large copper and gold deposits. The Company
holds approximately 30,000 hectares located in the prolific high-grade Andahuaylas-Yauri Porphyry-
Skarn belt of Southern Peru. Mineralization at Jasperoide is hosted in a similar geological setting to the
nearby major mining operations at Las Bambas (MMG), Constancia (Hudbay) and Antapaccay
(Glencore). At Jasperoide, the Company has identified over 15 skarn prospects and an outcropping
porphyry system over two parallel 28km belts. The Company has published a maiden resource estimate
on the first of these skarn targets, which contained Measured & Indicated Resources of 52Mt at 0.5%
copper and 0.2 g/t gold. The Company is also actively exploring in Jamaica where it has identified 16
porphyry, 40 epithermal and multiple volcanic redbed copper prospects over a 30km strike extent. The
Company holds a 100% interest in 17,855 hectares of exploration licenses, of which Freeport-McMoRan
Exploration Corporation, a wholly-owned affiliate of Freeport-McMoRan Inc., has the option on 13,020
hectares to earn up to a 75% interest by funding up to US$75 million of exploration and project related
expenditures. The Company also holds a 50% interest in 9,870 hectares in a joint venture with Geophsyx
Jamaica Ltd, the largest mineral tenure holder in the country. Barrick Gold Corp. announced on May 1,
2024 that it had entered into an earn-in agreement with Geophysx Jamaica Ltd. on approximately
400,000 hectares of exploration licenses, several of which surround C3 Metals' mineral concessions.
Mining is currently the second largest industry in Jamaica, and historical mining dates back to the
colonial eras of the 1500s (Spanish) and 1800s (British).
