MineHub’s technology complements Kutcho Copper’s plans to advance its copper-zinc-silver-gold project in British Columbia where concentrates would be produced, and Kutcho Copper would look to realize cost savings through utilization of the application.
Each Syndicate member will appoint a person to a product steering committee and to MineHub’s advisory board around a multi-year commitment. Syndicate members will receive a founder’s equity position in MineHub and are entitled to pre-emptive rights to participate in equity financings.
