Coyote Copper Mines Inc.
Coyote Copper Mines (formerly Copper Bullet Mines, re-listed via a reverse takeover with Goal Capital Corp in April 2026) holds the ~3,600 ha Copper Springs Project roughly 10 miles northeast of Superior, Arizona, in the historic Copper Triangle mining district. A newly discovered sulphide copper zone and an integrated geophysics/hyperspectral program point to a potential large porphyry copper system, funded by an upsized CAD $8.59M non-brokered financing that closed in mid-2026.

Jurisdiction (40%)9/10
Arizona: Fraser PPI 2025 is 90.73 of 100 (rank 10 of 68), which maps to 9 on this site's scale. Arizona's historic 'Copper Triangle' district — top-tier mining jurisdiction with strong existing infrastructure (highway, power, water on-site).
Infrastructure (40%)6.4/10
Confirmed road access at Copper Springs Project, Arizona; existing mill, grid power, and tailings facility not yet researched, counted at a neutral 5/10 until established.

Acquisition Susceptibility
A relative ranking of how closely this company matches the profile of juniors that have actually been acquired — not a probability, and not a reason to buy. Acquisitions are rare: only a few dozen significant deals happen a year across a universe of thousands of juniors, so even a high score here describes a long shot. The strongest signal in the research, a producer that already owns part of the company, is scored from its disclosed strategic shareholders. A producer that is a joint-venture or earn-in partner on the project, rather than a shareholder, isn't captured yet.
How this score is built
- Disclosed pending dealSub-score: Not scored
No pending acquisition or merger disclosed (checked)
Not scored: having no deal in flight isn't held against a company.

No producer holds a disclosed stake on file (holder register researched) See holders
Not scored: most juniors that do get bought had no prior toehold, so a missing stake says little either way.

Distance not yet researched: no project coordinates on file
Distance can't be measured without coordinates, so excluded rather than counted as far.

Coyote Copper Mines, formerly Copper Bullet Mines, re-listed through a reverse takeover with Goal Capital in April 2026 and owns 100% of the Copper Springs project, about 10 miles north-east of Superior in Arizona's historic Copper Triangle district. A newly discovered sulphide copper zone and soil geochemistry, geophysics and hyperspectral work point to a possible large porphyry copper system, and the company has grown its land position to 885 claims covering about 17,880 acres. On 15 September 2026 its Phase 1 drill permits were approved, authorising 37 drill locations with three years to complete drilling and reclamation, to test both shallow oxide and deeper sulphide copper targets.
