Great Southern Copper PLCG
Great Southern Copper PLC is a UK-incorporated (England & Wales, company no. 12497319), London-headquartered mineral exploration company targeting copper-gold-silver porphyry systems in the underexplored coastal copper belt of northern Chile, admitted to AIM in December 2021. Its principal asset is the Especularita project, an option to earn 100% of mining rights across 16,747 hectares, within which several targets are being advanced: Cerro Negro (Phase III diamond and RC drilling completed in 2026), Viuda (tested for porphyry gold systems), Colorada (new high-priority target being tested) and Mostaza (a high-grade copper-silver discovery the company is following up). The company also holds the San Lorenzo project and a lithium interest at Monti. No NI 43-101/JORC-compliant mineral resource estimate has yet been published for any target -- the company remains at the drill-results stage, not a defined resource, which is why this record is seeded at GRASSROOTS rather than RESOURCE_DEFINITION. In November 2025 the company raised GBP2.5 million via a private placing (99.64 million new shares at 2.5p, a 10% discount to its 20-day VWAP) described as its largest raise since listing, to expand the Chilean exploration programme; cash at bank stood at GBP1.17 million as of 31 Mar 2026 (FY2026 year end), with the Group carrying GBP Nil borrowings at both 31 Mar 2026 and 31 Mar 2025.

Lifecycle Milestones
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 the underlying research identifies — whether a major already holds a JV, earn-in, or 5–19.9% strategic stake — isn't tracked yet and is absent from this score.

Reports, Presentations & Documents
No NI 43-101/JORC mineral resource estimate has been published for any Great Southern Copper target as of this seed (2026-08-24) -- ouncesFound, dcfNpvUsd, irrPct and mineLifeYears are all left null as a genuine absence of any resource, not an unresearched gap. Cerro Negro's Phase III diamond/RC drilling programme completed in 2026 with results still being followed up at the time of this record; Mostaza is described by the company as a 'high-grade copper-silver discovery' but no compliant grade/tonnage estimate has been released for it.
