About Koryx Copper Inc.
Koryx Copper Inc. is a Canadian copper development Company focused on advancing its 100% owned Haib Copper Project in Namibia whilst also building a portfolio of copper exploration licenses in Zambia. Haib is a large, advanced (PEA-stage) copper/molybdenum porphyry deposit in southern Namibia with a long history of exploration and project development by multiple operators. More than 80,000m of drilling has been conducted at Haib since the 1970's with significant exploration programs led by companies including Falconbridge (1964), Rio Tinto (1975) and Teck (2014).
Haib has a current mineral resource of 414Mt @ 0.35% Cu for 1,459Mt of contained copper in the Indicated category and 345Mt @ 0.33% Cu for 1136Mt of contained copper in the Inferred category (0.25% Cu cut-off). Various technical studies have been completed or are underway aiming to reposition Haib as a large, long-life, low-cost, low-risk open pit, sulphide flotation copper project with the potential for additional copper production from heap leaching.
Mineralization at Haib is typical of a porphyry copper deposit and it is one of only a few examples of a paleoproterozoic porphyry copper deposit in the world and in southern Africa (both in Namibia).
Due to its age, the deposit has been subjected to multiple metamorphic and deformation events but still retains many of the classic mineralization and alteration features typical of these deposits. The mineralization is dominantly chalcopyrite with minor bornite and chalcocite present and only minor secondary copper minerals at surface due to the arid environment.

Are you a boss who misses being part of the team? Here's how to handle it
Business is a team sport, and it's nice to have the camaraderie of laughing, grinding toward deadlines, and even gossiping with your teammates. But when you're the boss, you're not just one of the crew—even if you'd like the easy camaraderie shared among people who aren't calling the shots. What happens when layoffs are approaching, or the company is facing budget cuts? You may feel lonely—you know what's coming but lack peers to confide in or commiserate with. Then there are the everyday stressors that come with leadership, like giving feedback or telling someone they won't be getting the promotion. It can be lonely at the top. If you miss being part of the team, here are some actions you can take. Accept your position and the restrictions that come with it As a leader, there are many things you won't be able to share with the folks on your team—and that's just the way it is. For example, you may feel jealousy when you see them laughing and having a good time while you're stuck doing the budgeting. Don't fight these feelings; acknowledge them. Accept the reality that you're the leader, and that many times you'll have to stand alone. Find a trusted adviser Even though you're the boss, you still need someone to bounce ideas off of: you can't live in a silo. Find a person who shares your philosophies regarding business, leadership, and people. Establish a consistent cadence and routine for working with your adviser outside of your company. Note that this should be a reciprocal relationship; offer your ideas and opinions to your adviser when asked. Be someone in whom they can confide. Find appropriate times to pop in Just because you're the boss doesn't mean you can't have any part of the day-to-day team operations. Find instances where you can pop in and be part of the team. Be judicious about this—for example, you probably don't want to hop in on a meeting the team can handle on their own. An appropriate time to join the team may be when everyone is working toward a deadline and the load is intense. Otherwise, be present, but not overbearing. You have a new team group Even though you're the boss, you're not completely alone. You have new peers—other managers, or the executive leadership team. Everything evolves and changes; you can have fun with this new group, too. Look for opportunities to connect, even if you miss your old team. You will evolve as a leader. Being the boss can be a great new opportunity, even if you miss the camaraderie that came without that title. Instead of longing for what was, make the most of your position and forge new relationships among your peers in leadership.

In the news today: Air Canada flying again; Canada Post, workers pick up negotiations
Here is a roundup of stories from The Canadian Press designed to bring you up to speed... Air Canada's North American routes ramp up today Air Canada flights within North America are expected to ramp up this morning as the airline continues its operational restart following a three-day flight attendants' strike. The company resumed flights Tuesday afternoon after a complete halt to Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge routes that began early Saturday morning. It said it was focusing on outbound international flights to start. The airline has cautioned that a return to full, regular service would take seven to 10 days as aircraft and crew are out of position, and that some flights will continue to be cancelled until the schedule is stabilized. It is offering customers with cancelled flights a full refund or credit for future travel if they cannot be rebooked on a competitor's flight. Section 107 of labour code is 'dead': union leader A rare show of defiance by Air Canada flight attendants in the face of a back-to-work order from the government has proven the ineffectiveness of the section of Canada's labour code that allows a minister to order the end to a strike or lockout, the president of the Canadian Labour Congress said. On Aug. 16, just hours after flight attendants hit the picket line after failing to reach a new contract deal with the airline, Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu invoked section 107 of the Canada Labour Code to order binding arbitration and get the flight attendants back on the job. The section grants the minister the power to act to "maintain or secure industrial peace." Flight attendants ignored the order and remained on strike until a deal was finally reached early Tuesday, a move Canadian Labour Congress President Bea Bruske lauded as effective. "It sets a precedent (that) you can defy, and you will find a solution at the bargaining table," Bruske said Tuesday in an interview with The Canadian Press. "It sets a precedent for the reality that (section) 107 is no longer effective, it is effectively dead." Canada Post, union head back to bargaining table Canada Post and the union representing postal workers are set to return to the bargaining table today. Plans to rekindle talks late last week were delayed due to a lack of federal government mediators. The Canadian Union of Postal Workers claimed labour unrest at Air Canada was pulling attention from the postal service's dispute, which has stretched on for more than a year and a half. A few weeks ago, unionized postal workers rejected the Crown corporation's latest offer that would have included wage hikes of around 13 per cent over four years and added part-timers to the workforce. Enbridge, Cenovus target of greenwashing complaint A shareholder advocacy group has filed a greenwashing complaint with Alberta's securities watchdog alleging Cenovus Inc., one of Canada's biggest oilsands producers, and Enbridge Inc., the country's biggest crude pipeline operator, have misled investors in their environmental disclosures. Investors for Paris Compliance, which seeks to hold publicly traded companies accountable for their climate commitments, argues the companies have breached the Alberta Securities Act "with long-standing and widespread inaccurate and incomplete disclosure" related to net-zero commitments. "By extensively using net-zero terminology in their communications, Cenovus and Enbridge have led reasonable investors and the public to believe that their business models are aligned with the net-zero energy transition, which in fact threatens both their existing business and fossil fuel expansion plans," the group said in its submissions to the Alberta Securities Commission. Quebec promises changes to forestry bill The Quebec government is renewing its promise to modify a forestry bill that has provoked blockades and growing tension in the province. Indigenous Affairs Minister Ian Lafrenière said Tuesday evening that the forestry reform bill must be amended to take into account the rights of First Nations. His social media statement came after a six-hour meeting with First Nations leaders and representatives of the forest industry. He and Natural Resources Minister Maïté Blanchette Vézina are expected to meet today with the Assembly of First Nations Quebec–Labrador and the office of Premier François Legault. Alberta flips on controversial disclosure policy Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's government is again shifting its expense disclosure policy after critics from across the political spectrum accused her of dodging responsibility. In early August, the province quietly published new rules axing a requirement for Smith, her ministers, senior staff and deputy ministers to publicly post receipts for expenses over $100. Marisa Breeze, press secretary to Finance Minister Nate Horner, said in a Tuesday email that cabinet has directed Horner to see that the previous expense posting policy is reinstated -- but with a tweak. "Cabinet recognized the importance of an expense posting policy that achieves both security and transparency," she said. --- This report by The Canadian Press was first published AUg. 20, 2025 The Canadian Press
