- Origen Resources Inc. is a Vancouver, British Columbia-based mineral exploration company focused on project generation, exploration, and development of base and precious metal projects. The company’s core assets include the 100%-owned Los Sapitos Lithium Project in San Juan Province, Argentina; the Wishbone Gold-Silver Project located in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle; the Broken Handle high-grade gold-silver and base metals project in British Columbia; and additional precious and base metal projects in southern British Columbia. Origen’s products and services primarily revolve around the acquisition, exploration, and evaluation of lithium, gold, silver, rare earth elements, and base metal mineral properties through rigorous exploration programs and strategic partnerships.
Recent major changes include entering into a Letter of Intent to acquire a prospective Rare Earth Elements (REE) project in Brazil, expanding its strategic geographic footprint beyond Canada and Argentina. Origen has completed exploration programs on key projects such as Broken Handle and Wishbone, identifying new targets and resource potential. The company also announced a strategic investment involving a significant transformative investor that could lead to a change of control. In 2025, Origen strengthened its board, continued advancing its lithium and gold-silver projects, and made several strategic investments in exploration companies. Origen also focuses on monetizing its assets through joint ventures and spinout corporations, reflecting a strategic shift to leverage capital and expertise for growth.
The company operates mainly within Canada, Argentina, and Brazil, targeting the mining-friendly jurisdictions of British Columbia in Canada, San Juan Province in Argentina, and the Brazilian REE sector. Founded in 2017, Origen Resources maintains a diversified portfolio spanning lithium, precious metals, base metals, and emerging critical minerals with an emphasis on high-grade projects. The company actively pursues partnerships for project development and asset monetization while leveraging exploration successes to expand its resource base and market presence. Origen’s comprehensive asset base and strategic moves position it as a dynamic mineral exploration and development enterprise in North and South America.
Origen Resources combines project generation and exploration expertise with strategic investment and partnership models to develop high-potential mineral resources in emerging critical minerals and precious metals sectors, enabling a diverse product offering primarily focused on lithium, gold, silver, rare earths, and base metals exploration and development.
