Azzuro Resources

Azzuro Resources PLC (ASX: AZ9), formerly Asian Battery Metals PLC, is an ASX-listed copper and base metals exploration company advancing a growing project cluster in southwest Mongolia. AZ9 is anchored by the Oval Cu-Ni-PGE discovery — a high-grade magmatic sulphide system with over 880 metres of confirmed strike length — supported by the Red Hill copper-gold VMS project. AZ9's edge is in-country execution. The Company combines a Mongolia-experienced board, a strong local technical team, and countrywide geological knowledge built through years of operating on the ground. That platform enables AZ9 to move efficiently from discovery through target generation toward resource definition — in one of Asia's most prospective and underexplored copper belts.
