In this Natural Resource Stocks company interview, host Steve Yang sits down with Joseph van den Elsen, President and CEO of Andina Copper, to dig into how this South America focused explorer is trying to turn a portfolio of copper and copper gold discoveries into a meaningful new producer. Andina Copper holds the high grade Piuquenes copper gold porphyry discovery in San Juan, Argentina, the Cobrasco copper moly porphyry in Chocó, Colombia, and an undrilled copper gold target in Chile’s Coastal Cordillera, all positioned along the world’s premier Andean porphyry belt.

Joseph explains how the team thinks about grade, scale, access and jurisdictional risk, why they believe their flagship discoveries can attract mid tier and major partners, and how the recent move to the TSX Venture Exchange under the ANDC ticker fits into a broader capital markets strategy. We also touch on how Rugby Resources was folded into the story, why the company talks about “one plus one equals three” across Argentina and Colombia, and what success would look like over the next eighteen to twenty four months if the drill bit cooperates.

Key topics discussed:

  • Andina Copper’s portfolio and how Piuquenes, Cobrasco and the Chilean target fit together
  • Why the company is focused on district scale copper gold systems in proven belts
  • How management weighs geological risk versus jurisdictional and access risk
  • What recent drilling at Piuquenes and Cobrasco is starting to show at depth and near surface
  • Capital structure, insider ownership and what the TSX Venture listing changes
  • 2026 drill plans, news flow and what Joseph wants investors to watch for
