Highland Copper: A Critical U.S. Copper Solution with Near-Term Production

As the U.S. fast-tracks domestic copper supply, Highland Copper emerges as a standout player

As the United States looks to secure domestic sources of copper to fuel its clean energy and defense agendas, Highland Copper is stepping into the spotlight at just the right time. With its flagship Copperwood Project in Michigan, the company holds one of the country’s most advanced near-production copper assets.

The urgency is real. With copper now a critical mineral in the U.S., and development timelines typically stretching past 20 years, Highland’s ready-to-go positioning makes it a rare find. Backed by a feasibility study, key permits, and significant early site work already underway, the company is pushing toward a construction decision by 2026.

What sets Highland apart even further is financial momentum. The U.S. Export-Import Bank has issued a letter of interest for $250million in project financing, covering over half of the project’s $400million capex. This strong government signal underscores Copperwood’s strategic value for America’s resource security—and has investors taking note.

With rising copper prices and a capital-efficient project model, Highland Copper could see outsized returns. A 25% increase in copper prices could drive a 300% lift in net asset value, making this one of the most leveraged copper projects in North America.
