Freeport Resources Inc. is a Canadian mineral exploration company focusing on advancing the development of the Yandera copper-gold-molybdenum project in Papua New Guinea. The company has successfully closed multiple tranches of its non-brokered private placement offering, generating gross proceeds and issuing shares with warrants. With one of the largest undeveloped copper-gold deposits globally, Freeport continues to expand its exploration and development activities.
Freeport Resources (TSXV: FRI) (OTCQB: FEERF) has appointed Practara to lead the Yandera Copper Project Phase 1 Optimisation and Value-Add Review Study. The Yandera Copper Project, located in Papua New Guinea, is an advanced-stage project with over US$200 million invested in exploration and development. A 2017 Pre-Feasibility Study estimated historical Measured and Indicated Resources of 728 million tonnes grading 0.39% copper equivalent.
The optimisation study is structured in two phases to enhance the project's technical and financial performance. Phase 1 focuses on desktop-based gap analysis and preliminary optimisation, while Phase 2 will refine technical inputs and update the 2017 Pre-Feasibility Study. The study aims to improve economics by evaluating opportunities to reduce costs, enhance recoveries, and optimise logistics.
Freeport Resources views this as part of an ongoing strategic review to maximize the Yandera Copper Project's value, which they believe is significantly undervalued based on historical expenditures, current copper prices, and expansion potential.
Freeport Resources announced the closure of an oversubscribed private placement, raising $5.2 million in gross proceeds.

Proceeds will be used for project optimization and partnership discussions to advance to a Definitive Feasibility Study. The company's stock symbol is FEERF.
