Panoro Minerals is a Canadian copper exploration company advancing its flagship Cotabambas Project. Panoro's projects are located in the fastest developing copper producing region in the world in Southern Peru. All major infrastructure, such as rail, road and port, is developed and expanding rapidly from $US 15 billion of completed investments into four large open pit copper mines. Peru's strategic advantage of plentiful fresh water and low power costs present a sustainable environment for ongoing and rapid development of its mineral wealth. Peru has enjoyed over twenty five years of a progressive and stable political environment, resulting in positive fiscal policy and regulatory reforms aimed at stimulating further investment into the mining sector in general and specifically into the copper mining sector. The worldwide copper sector is headed towards a structural deficit in the availability of new supplies. The demand of copper continues to grow fuelled by the industrialization and urbanization of underdeveloped nations and the transition to cleaner sources of energy. Cleaner energy demands is leading to increased use of electric motors which require greater copper use. The supply of copper is being constrained by declining grades at existing mines, lack of investment into copper exploration resulting in the lack of new discoveries, extended periods of time to advance from exploration to development and permitting delays in many jurisdictions. Panoro is the only exploration and development company with advanced copper assets in the strategically important region of Southern Peru. The company is well financed to continue growing and optimizing the Cotabambas and Antilla Projects with key long term shareholders, mine operators and finance entities.
