ArcWest Exploration Mobilizes $4M Drill Program at Todd Creek with Freeport Backing

 ArcWest Exploration is actively advancing multiple copper-gold projects, primarily through earn-in and joint venture agreements with partners like Freeport-McMoRan, Sanatana Resources, and Copper Quest Exploration.

This strategy allows them to pursue several exploration programs simultaneously, minimizing shareholder dilution while increasing their chances of discovery. On June 26, 2025, ArcWest announced they have mobilized to begin a $4 million drilling program at their wholly-owned Todd Creek Copper-Gold Project in British Columbias Golden Triangle.

This program is 100% funded by Freeport-McMoRan Mineral Properties Canada Inc. under an earn-in agreement. Freeport-McMoran is one of the world’s largest copper producers with over $2.7 billion in cash and access to a $3 billion credit facility. They have major assets in Indonesia, Peru, Chile, and the U.S.

-The project has historical drill holes with promising results, including 3.6 g/t Au and 0.27% Cu over 29.75m at the South Zone. In plain terms, this drill result means the project could be sitting on a large, valuable mineral system—the kind that mining companies love to find. -ArcWest owns seven copper-gold projects in top-tier districts, giving it a diversified exploration pipeline. Todd Creek and Oweegee Dome are the crown jewels and are in the Golden Triangle, while the rest of the portfolio spreads across other high-potential regions in British Columbia

-Financial Position: As of May 2025, ArcWest had $2.65M in cash,a low burn rate, and no warrants outstanding, which is rare for a junior explorer.

If someone wants exposure to copper-gold exploration in a world-class district—with backing from a mining giant—ArcWest could be a strategic bet.

But, as in most Junior exploration companies, it’s not for the faint of heart since investing would be in potential, not current performance.
