Latin America's Mining Potential: Focus on Key Projects and Investments
Latin America is a significant source of critical minerals, including copper, lithium, and rare earth elements. Companies like Bravo Mining and Hannan Metals are advancing large-scale projects, with substantial investment backing aimed at enhancing mineral production and exploration in the region.

Latin America holds vast reserves of critical minerals, including copper and lithium. Bravo Mining's Luanga project in Brazil is set to complete a feasibility study in Q3 2026, supported by a recent $86 million funding round.
The project forecasts annual production of 255,000 oz. palladium and has an after-tax NPV of $1.25 billion. Hannan Metals is exploring its Valiente project in Peru, focusing on copper and gold, with a recent high-grade discovery at the Previsto target.
New Pacific Metals plans extensive drilling at its Carangas project in Bolivia, aiming for a 16-year mine life producing 106 million oz. of silver. Perpetua Resources is seeking $2.7 billion in US government backing for its Stibnite project in Idaho, crucial for US gold and antimony supply chains. The outcomes of these projects may significantly influence mineral supply dynamics in the Americas.
