GSP Resource Corp. (GSPR:TSX.V; GSRCF:OTCBB), a junior mining company founded six years ago, has recently adjusted its approach to the Alwin Copper Mine project in British Columbia. The company, which trades on the TSX Venture Exchange and OTC Markets, initially planned for underground mining but has now pivoted to an open-pit model.

The Alwin property, located adjacent to Teck Corporation's Highland Valley Copper Mine, has a production history dating back to 1916. Operations ceased in 1981 due to low copper prices. GSP Resource acquired an option on the project in 2020, which includes cash payments, share issuance, and a royalty agreement.

The company's decision to redesign its mining plan as an open pit aligns more closely with Teck's nearby operations. This shift may make the project more attractive to Teck as a potential buyer. On October 1, GSP Resource released a block model based on data from 581 historical drill holes totaling over 45,000 meters.

While the current resource estimate focuses primarily on copper, the deposit is known to contain silver, gold, and molybdenum. However, these elements were not consistently assayed in historical drilling due to lower prices at the time.

GSP Resource recently raised $650,000 for further exploration and development work at Alwin. The project's proximity to Teck's operations — with only 1 km separating the properties — could be strategically significant.

The company's market capitalization is relatively small, estimated at around $4 million. This valuation includes recently issued shares. As GSP Resource continues to develop the Alwin project, it may become an increasingly attractive acquisition target for larger mining companies operating in the area.
