Numa Numa Resources Inc. Advances Panguna Mine Redevelopment in Bougainville

Numa Numa Resources Inc. is positioning for opportunity as the Panguna Mine, being redeveloped by the company and its landowner partners, has massive amounts of copper and gold as well as an attractive infrastructure. Numa Numa's operations in Bougainville are multifaceted, encompassing not only mining for precious metals like copper and gold but also redeveloping key infrastructure assets like the Manetai lime quarrying and calcination project, an asset necessary for separating gold from copper in a concentrator, which is also a key element in rebuilding Bougainville's economy. Numa Numa's initiatives will enable Bougainvilleans to not only achieve prosperity but independence.

In the evolving global mining landscape, regions rich in untapped resources present significant opportunities for companies with management teams devoted to spending years onsite developing them. Numa Numa Resources has done so over the last 10 years in the Autonomous Region of Bougainville, currently a political unit of Papua New Guinea. As a result, the company has strategically positioned itself to capitalize on the spectacular potential of this resource-rich South Pacific archipelago.

Bougainville, a resource-rich archipelago in the South Pacific, is perhaps best known as the home of the Panguna Mine. Developed by Rio Tinto, the Panguna Mine was the largest open cut copper and gold mine in the world when it operated from 1972 to 1989 before being shuttered due to a civil war, called "the Crisis," between Bougainville and its parent government Papua New Guinea. In 2001, the Bougainville Peace Agreement ended the war and awarded Bougainville limited autonomy, including its own constitution, by which ownership of the mine reverted to its customary landowners.

A majority of the Panguna Mine's copper, gold, and silver ore resources remain within its walls, making the fully explored and developed Panguna Mine one of the largest ore bodies in the world, today worth approximately $100 billion. Most geologists who have studied Bougainville believe that other nearby locations such as Mainoki and Karato are highly prospective and may contain ore deposits similar in size and scale to those of the Panguna Mine.

This redevelopment matters because it represents a critical economic opportunity for Bougainville, a region recovering from conflict and seeking greater autonomy. The Panguna Mine's vast resources, estimated at $100 billion, could transform the local economy and provide the financial foundation for Bougainville's future development. Numa Numa's decade-long presence and infrastructure projects like the Manetai lime operation demonstrate a commitment to sustainable development that goes beyond extraction.

The implications extend beyond immediate economic benefits. Successful redevelopment could strengthen Bougainville's position in potential independence negotiations with Papua New Guinea by providing substantial revenue streams. It also signals to global mining investors that politically complex regions can offer viable opportunities when companies engage respectfully with local communities and landowners. The project's success could serve as a model for resource development in post-conflict regions worldwide.
