Anfield is engaged in mineral exploration, development, and production in the United States and Chile with a focus on acquiring and developing an array of strategic mineral projects which are summarized below.
Anfield's uranium assets total over 17,500 acres (7,082 hectares) of mining claims and state leases strategically situated in southeastern Utah, western Colorado, and Arizona. These target areas include past producing uranium mines or prospects within a potentially economical shipping radius of Energy Fuels' White Mesa Mill, the only operating conventional uranium mill in the United States.
The Binghampton Copper Queen (BCQ) project, located 17 miles (27 km) southeast of Prescott, Arizona, and within the Arizona VMS Belt, consists of 5,021 acres (2,032 hectares) of private, BLM, and State land, with two past-producing mines on the property.
The North Star Copper Project, located less than 50 miles (80 km) northwest of Tucson, covering approximately 4,000 acres (1,619 hectares), targets relatively shallow oxide copper at the historic North Star site in the heart of southern Arizona's copper country.
The Aura Project, a nascent copper production operation in Atacama, Chile, is located 20 miles (32 km) east of Copiapo and consists of eight mining concessions totalling over 2,800 acres (1,133 hectares) in one of the foremost copper producing regions in the world.
