In this episode, we chat with Pierre Leveille, President, and CEO of Deep-South Resources, a mineral exploration company that is focused on the exploration and development of quality assets close to infrastructure in stable countries. Their expertise is in copper, in Africa, namely Namibia.

Pierre has a background in investment and mining exploration and has been heavily involved in the mining industry in Namibia over the past 25 years. He has a wealth of knowledge and understanding of the country, what it is like as a mining jurisdiction, and tells us more about Deep South Resources.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Deep South Resources is a large copper deposit.
It´s a low-grade deposit, but with good extraction technology, it is highly viable.
Bio-assisted heat bleaching has been in use for around 40 years.
It is possible to recover 96% using this technology.
There are issues with the license, which can be resolved. This is all discussed, in detail, in the podcast.
Namibia is a good mining jurisdiction. The World Bank rates it as the number 2 or 3 country in Africa to invest in.
Forty percent of Namibia´s exports relate to mining.
Deep South Resources are planning to expand by acquiring more projects in Africa.
The price of copper is set to rise steeply over the next 5 years.
Demand for copper is going to be huge from both the IT and green industry sectors.
