Business
Bezant Resources Plc engages in the exploration and development of copper-gold and manganese mineral resources. The company holds interests in the Hope Copper-Gold Project in Namibia, where it owns 70% through Hope and Gorob Mining (Pty) Ltd covering Mining Licence ML 246 valid until 2040 and adjacent exploration licences EPL 5796, EPL 6605 and EPL 7170; the Kanye Manganese Project in Botswana comprising prospecting licences over 1,669 square kilometres; and a reduced investment position in the Mankayan Copper-Gold Project in the Philippines following the completion of a merger between IDM International Limited and Blackstone Minerals Ltd in June 2025, retaining 80,574,880 Blackstone shares and 2,543,750 options. Founded in 1994 and headquartered in London, United Kingdom, Bezant targets volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits in the Matchless Copper Belt and other prospective regions across southern Africa and Asia-Pacific, with an updated JORC-compliant mineral resource estimate for Hope and Gorob of 15 million tonnes at 1.2% copper containing 190,000 tonnes of copper. Recent developments include the award of Mining Licence ML 246 and Environmental Clearance Certificate in 2025; entry into a conditional agreement on 13 August 2025 to acquire 90% of Namib Lead and Zinc Mining Proprietary Limited for its NLZM Processing Plant to process copper-gold ore from Hope and Gorob, structured with a USD2.5 million upfront payment plus royalties and projected NPV of USD46.8 million at a 10% discount rate; positive geophysical survey results at Kanye in August 2024; disposal of the Eureka Copper Project in Argentina to Ajax Resources Plc in May 2025 for USD170,000; and partial sale of Blackstone shares in October 2025.
