It identified nine copper exploration corridors on its southern licences and is set to begin field sampling on its northern ground to define drill sites.
An AI-assisted analysis of more than 50 years of legacy exploration records has confirmed chalcopyrite and other copper minerals in historical boreholes on Botswana Minerals' licences, validating the company's copper geological model.
AI-assisted analysis of two northern Botswana licences has flagged 36 copper anomalies across six exploration corridors, with initial field work planned within three months.
Botswana Minerals says its AI‑assisted exploration over licences 458 and 459 in Ngamiland has flagged a 9.5km copper anomaly, a 20km silver corridor and a 2.4km lead‑zinc core as priority targets ahead of drilling.
The AIM-listed explorer raised £1,150,000, issuing new shares at 0.25p each, plus warrants.
The licences were awarded following an AI-driven analysis of the group's geoscientific database. The move gives the explorer scale in north‑west Botswana's Damaran Belt, and signals a strategic pivot toward metals used in electrification and energy transition.
