Cobre Deepens Kalahari Push and Moves Into Chile With Sierra Atacama Deal

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

An announcement from Cobre Limited ( (AU:CBE) ) is now available.

Cobre Limited reported a half-year loss of $1.8 million to 31 December 2025 as it advanced copper exploration in Botswana’s Kalahari Copper Belt. The company’s results reflect higher exploration expenditure across its 100%-owned licences and the progression of its earn-in arrangement with BHP over the Kitlanya East and West projects.

During the period, Cobre signed an investment agreement with Sinomine International Exploration giving Sinomine the right to acquire a 70% interest in the Okavango Project for $7 million following an investment of up to $3 million. After the half-year, Cobre moved to diversify geographically, entering a binding deal with Minera Salar Blanco to earn up to a 51% stake in Chile’s Sierra Atacama Copper Project, which includes an operating underground mine producing around 400 tonnes of copper cathode per month.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:CBE) stock is a Hold with a A$0.17 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Cobre Limited stock, see the AU:CBE Stock Forecast page.
