The company regained control of the project following the end of its joint venture and farm-in agreement, under which IGO invested $24 million in exploration. Other targets include NB02a (Rainbow South) and MB01 (east of Maroochydore) in the Broadhurst Formation, home to the Nifty and Maroochydore deposits. Cyprium sees strong potential to extend copper mineralisation at the Rainbow prospect, where historic drilling confirmed both copper and silver. “Cyprium recently regained control of 2000km² of exploration ground that previously was subject to a joint venture and farm-in agreement with IGO,” Cyprium executive chair Matt Fifield said.
