Cordoba president and CEO Sarah Armstrong-Montoya said: “With JCHX’s continual unwavering confidence in Cordoba, it comes with no surprise when the time came for the Alacran project to find a partner, we conclusively arrived at JCHX.

“It is a huge advantage to have a vastly experienced mining and construction expert join us at the project level to support the development of the Alacran project, especially given that JCHX brings the added benefit of being very familiar with Cordoba.”

JCHX will have a permit for production offtake of up to 100% under the current feasibility study of the Alacran Project.

Ivanhoe Electric holds a 63.27% stake in Cordoba.
