Core offering

Chilean Metals is a junior mineral exploration company that holds 100% interest in four prospective gold, silver, and copper mineral properties: the Golden Ivan project in British Columbia's Golden Triangle and three IOCG-type projects (Palo Negro, Tierra de Oro, Zulema) in Chile's Atacama Region near Lundin Mining's Candelaria mine. The company conducts early-stage exploration including geological mapping, geophysical surveys, geochemical sampling, and diamond drilling to delineate mineral resources, with the intent of advancing discoveries toward eventual production, joint venture, or asset sale.

Product overview

Chilean Metals is a Canadian junior mineral exploration company with a portfolio of four distinct exploration projects spanning two prospective mining belts in the Americas. The flagship asset is the Golden Ivan property (797 hectares) in British Columbia's Golden Triangle, complemented by three copper-gold projects in Chile's Atacama Region: Palo Negro (6,672 acres), Tierra de Oro (3,460 acres), and Zulema (1,462 acres), all strategically positioned near Lundin Mining's Candelaria IOCG mine. The company also holds earlier-stage interests in the Hornitos and Tabaco projects. The exploration focus targets gold, silver, copper, and iron ore mineralization across IOCG, porphyry, and polymetallic vein systems.

Direct peers

• NGEx Minerals Ltd. South American-focused copper-gold explorer with projects in Chile and Argentina. Similar exploration mandate to Chilean Metals' Chilean portfolio, with comparable IOCG/porphyry target generation and capital-markets profile.
• Tudor Gold Corp. Exploration-stage company advancing the Treaty Creek project in BC's Golden Triangle. Closely comparable as a Golden Triangle-focused gold/copper explorer with a market-cap and IOCG-style target profile similar to Chilean Metals.
• Power Metallic Mines Inc. Former parent company that spun out Chilean Metals in February 2025 and transferred 100% of the Golden Ivan property. Operates as a junior explorer in the same Cordilleran mining belts with overlapping management (Terry Lynch, Joe Campbell, Ximena Perez), making it the most direct comparable on geography, people and stage.
• Dolly Varden Silver Corporation: Junior explorer advancing silver-gold projects in northwestern BC's Golden Triangle, sharing the Stikine Terrane geology with Chilean Metals' Golden Ivan property and a comparable small-cap exploration profile.
• Skeena Resources Limited: Junior miner focused on the Eskay Creek and Snip projects in BC's Golden Triangle. Directly comparable as a TSX-listed gold exploration company operating in the same district as Chilean Metals' Golden Ivan flagship, with similar drilling-catalyst-driven equity story.
• Lumina Gold Corp. Junior gold-copper explorer with the Cangrejos project in Ecuador. Comparable as a small-cap explorer advancing a single district-scale asset toward development, with a similar political/social-permit-risk profile to Chilean Metals' Chilean assets.
• Filo Corp. Copper-gold explorer advancing the Filo del Sol project on the Chile-Argentina border. Highly comparable business model — junior explorer with copper-gold porphyry/IOCG targets in South America, pre-revenue, multiple drill catalysts driving value.
• Ascot Resources Ltd. Junior producer-developer focused on the Premier Gold project in BC's Golden Triangle, directly adjacent to Chilean Metals' Golden Ivan property. Comparable in target style (polymetallic veins, gold) and Northern Cordillera focus.

Emerging players

• Solaris Resources Inc. Copper-focused junior explorer advancing the Warintza project in Ecuador. Comparable as a Cordillera-region copper-gold explorer with IOCG/porphyry targets, pre-revenue, and drill-catalyst-driven re-rating potential analogous to Chilean Metals' Chilean assets.

Broad incumbents

• Seabridge Gold Inc. Larger, established gold-focused explorer-developer with KSM and other BC assets. Provides a broader-market comparable on Northern Cordillera gold exploration and resource-stage valuation, though at substantially greater scale and earlier in development.
