Hudbay Minerals has announced a transaction to acquire Arizona Sonoran Copper's Cactus Project, which boasts approximately 11 billion pounds of copper resources and 5.3 billion pounds of proven and probable reserves. This merger aims to create one of North America's largest copper districts, integrating Cactus with Hudbay's existing Copper-World project in Arizona.
