In 2013, STM discovered the Onto Deposit within the mountainous terrain in the Contract of Work. The deposit is administratively located in Hu'u District (Dompu Regency). The Onto deposit is a Tier-1, world-class deposit and is one of the most significant global copper discoveries in the last 20 years.

The Hu’u Project is at the pre-feasibility study stage of development with an extensive exploration program underway to ensure the technical, social, environmental and financial viability of the project. This effort will continue over the coming years, reflecting our commitment to seeing the Onto Deposit become a world-class mining operation.

STM’s core value is ‘Life Matters Most‘ and guides every decision we make. To uphold this value, we have instituted robust procedures that prioritize the safety of our personnel, utilize safe work methods and provide industry-leading protective equipment across all our operational sites.
