About this episode
Solaris Resources continues to advance its flagship Warintza copper project in Ecuador after securing technical approval for its Environmental Impact Assessment, marking a major step toward full permitting and development. CEO Matthew Rowlinson discusses the project’s recently published PFS, highlighting Warintza’s large-scale reserve base, low strip ratio, strong economics, and long mine life that position it among the premier undeveloped copper assets globally. The conversation also explores future financing flexibility, strategic growth opportunities through additional land consolidation, and how Solaris is preparing for a potential construction decision by early 2027. With copper demand accelerating and few new tier-one projects advancing globally, Solaris believes Warintza is emerging at the right time in the market cycle.
