ValOre Metals controls an entire platinum, palladium and gold district in Brazil. Pedra Branca is one of very few advanced PGE projects of its kind outside Southern Africa and Russia, the two regions that dominate a tightening global supply. Behind it stands a board and management team with deep Brazilian operating roots, leaders who have driven billions in discoveries, built mines and processing plants, and led financings across the global mining sector.

Pedra Branca: a district-scale PGE opportunity in Brazil
Pedra Branca is ValOre’s 100%-owned, district-scale platinum group element project in Ceará State, Brazil, spanning 45 exploration licenses across 51,096 hectares. It hosts a 2022 NI 43-101 Inferred Mineral Resource of 2.2 million ounces of platinum, palladium, and gold (63.6 million tonnes grading 1.08 g/t 2PGE+Au).* Backed by more than US$10 million in ValOre exploration expenditures, including 23,500 metres of drilling, on top of roughly 30,000 metres by Anglo American Platinum and earlier operators, ValOre has doubled the project’s resource base since the 2019 acquisition and delineated seven near-surface zones, several still open for expansion.
2022 NI 43-101 Inferred Mineral Resource: *2,198,000 ounces (“oz”) palladium + platinum + gold (“2PGE+Au”) in 63,568,000 tonnes (“t”) grading 1.08 g/t 2PGE+Au.
Why Valore
Platinum group elements are essential to modern industry, yet their supply is among the most concentrated and fragile of any strategic commodity, with approximately 80% of global primary production coming from Southern Africa and Russia, two regions facing structural headwinds. Demand is climbing from hybrid vehicles, Chinese investment and the emerging hydrogen economy, even as platinum becomes a designated critical mineral in both the United States and the EU. The result is a multi-year deficit the market is only beginning to price, and a Western push to secure supply that puts a near-surface PGE district like Pedra Branca squarely in focus.
