Luca is taking another major step forward with the acquisition of the Cozamin Mine.
Cozamin is a long-standing, cash-generating underground copper-silver mine in Zacatecas, Mexico, with 20 years of continuous production, established infrastructure and a significant historical resource base. The acquisition adds another proven producing asset to Luca’s growing portfolio and expands our presence into one of Mexico’s most established mining regions.
💰 Adds immediate cash flow to Luca's portfolio
🇲🇽 Established underground copper-silver mine in Zacatecas
📈 Significant historical reserve & resource base
🎯 Extensive exploration opportunities across known mineralized systems

Boots on the ground at Tahuehueto with Paul Gray, VP Exploration.
Our team is evaluating historical workings outside of current resource areas as we continue to identify and prioritize new exploration targets across the property.
These historic mine workings are evidence of past production and provide valuable clues about the broader mineralized system. With more than 100 km² of prospective ground, Tahuehueto remains significantly underexplored and offers considerable potential beyond our existing resources.
