Headquartered in Sydney, Australia, Aeramentum Resources Limited (ASX: AEN) was established to explore critical minerals and metals such as cobalt, nickel, copper, and gold through its ‘Treasure Project’, meeting the demands of the battery minerals market in Europe. The company primarily focuses on exploring battery metals, including copper, nickel, and cobalt. Aeramentum Resources (ASX: AEN) owns tenements in the Republic of Cyprus, EU, a past major copper producer, with a history of copper mining dating back to the 4TH MILLENNIUM BC.

Exploration Planning and Projects Overview
AEN demonstrates comprehensive exploration planning with a team of well-established geologists and support staff with regard to historical as well as recent mining explorations.
Past explorations at the Laxia Project (Black Pine) shows historical adits up to 1.5km in strike across Laxia and Pevkos Projects. This was an attempt to explore high-grade Polymetallic Ore in the 1950S however the ore was not considered compatible with the two-stage hydrometallurgical process known as Solvent Extraction and Electro-Winning (SX/EW) process used at the time (they were chasing oxide ore).
Later in 2013–14, BGM Resources completed 13 diamond drill holes out of 20 approved. The drilling, however, was not completed back then and the potentially thicker ore zones (7–8m wide seen at Laxia West) were not drilled, creating an immediate opportunity for Aeramentum.
Copper Mining in Cyprus
In sync with copper in ancient times, the name Cyprus derives from the Latin word Cuprum (copper). In fact, the word ‘Aeramentum’, is believed to be a Latin word that refers to ‘A strip of copper/bronze or bronze/copper vessels’. The Republic of Cyprus was once a major mining centre for copper and gold. Lately, between 1940 and 1976, more than 40 deposits were mined for copper and gold and over 1.3M TONNES of copper were mined over this period.
