FREQUENTLY ASKED
Questions investors and partners ask.
01Is CNP currently operating a refinery in Korea?
No. The Pyeongtaek copper and molybdenum refinery is a phased, source-stated plan beginning 2025–2028. No refining facility is described as operating today.
02Are the mineral figures on this site independently verified reserves?
Not all of them. Some figures reflect historical or exploration-stage data. Treat any resource or reserve figure as provisional until confirmed by an applicable technical report.
03Has CNP signed a supply agreement with Codelco?
The source material describes the relationship as at an MOU / negotiation stage, not a completed contract. This page will be updated once a definitive agreement, if any, is executed and authorized for disclosure.
04Is the digital-asset product available for investment now?
No. It is described as a concept under structuring, subject to jurisdiction-specific regulatory review, and is not an offer or solicitation.
05What is the relationship between CNP and ASTRA?
ASTRA (Astra Comercializadora Ltda and related Chilean entities) forms the upstream mining and exploration platform of the group. CNP Corporation (Seoul) is the Korean commercial and strategy hub. The two brands are used together across the shared resource platform.
06How can I request access to technical or financial documents?
Qualified investors, buyers and strategic partners can request controlled data-room access through the Investor Relations section or the contact channel below.
