Sandfire Resources America updated its Preliminary Feasibility Study for the Black Butte Copper Project, incorporating the nearby Lowry Deposit. This update extends the mine life from 8 to 12 years, increases combined mineral reserves to 14.3 million tonnes at 2.6% copper, and improves project economics with a pre-tax NPV of $213 million at $4.70/lb copper price. The project is positioned as one of the highest-grade underground copper developments in the U.S., with reduced operating costs and enhanced cash flow, pending permitting for Lowry. The company aims to optimize the mine plan further and move towards construction, promising significant economic benefits for Montana and the U.S.
