Xtract Resources Plc is a UK-based mineral exploration and development company focused on the discovery and advancement of copper and critical battery metal projects, chiefly targeting assets in Zambia, Morocco, and other strategic jurisdictions. The company specializes in the exploration and development of copper and antimony resources, leveraging strategic joint-venture partnerships and proven geological models to unlock value from high-potential deposits. Its main projects include the Silverking copper project and the Amghas antimony project, both located in Zambia and Morocco respectively, as well as historic mining sites with significant exploration potential. Xtract Resources conducts resource definition drilling to extend known high-grade copper and silver mineralization, positioning itself as a key player in the green energy transition by developing essential battery metals via sustainable growth.
Founded in 2004 and headquartered in London, United Kingdom, Xtract Resources operates within the mining industry with a strategic focus on critical minerals that support renewable energy technologies. The company has recently completed several major operational developments; it raised £2 million in late 2025 to fund ongoing development of its Silverking and Amghas projects. It acquired new antimony licenses in Morocco and advanced drilling programs in Zambia to define and extend mineralized zones. Recent drilling results have significantly expanded the known surface expression of high-grade mineralization at Silverking, validating its development potential. The company maintains a commitment to establishing small production units aimed at generating initial cash flow to scale these assets in the future.
Xtract's product and service portfolio includes the exploration, mining, and development of copper, silver, and antimony deposits. Its technical activities encompass exploration drilling, resource delineation, project development, and preparation for future mining operations. The company targets large-scale, high-grade mineral systems, including sediment-hosted copper deposits and iron oxide copper gold (IOCG) types. Xtract Resources also focuses on joint venture collaborations and asset acquisitions in politically stable, mining-friendly regions to mitigate risk and enhance growth potential.
Overall, Xtract Resources Plc is positioned as a specialist in developing critical battery metal resources essential for the green energy transition, utilizing an asset-centric approach in emerging copper-focused mining districts in Africa and key global mining regions, while maintaining a strategic operational base in London.
