Our CEO, Alex Walker, spoke with Crux Investor about our partner-funded model in Kazakhstan and what to expect through 2027.

Alex discusses how East Star is fully carried on two copper developments and will own around 30% of both at production – meaning no exposure to development capital or cost overrun while retaining a material stake.

He talks about Verkhuba resource drilling, which is approaching 5,000 metres, ahead of a mining licence application, and the commencement of drilling at Rulikha.
