Nevada Copper began construction of the Pumpkin Hollow mine in August 2018.

In January, the company filed a technical report and later signed a series of agreements with KfW IPEX-Bank and Concord Resources to finance the project.

It signed a $115m credit agreement with KfW IPEX-Bank and a $35m working capital facility with Concord Resources. Other offtake agreements were signed with Aurubis, Aurubis Bulgaria, and Concord.

Aiming to make new discoveries, exploration is currently underway at the Pumpkin Hollow greenfield mine.
