- The Haib mine is a proposed copper mine located in the south of Namibia in the ǁKaras Region. Haib represents one of the largest copper reserves in Namibia, having estimated reserves of 2 billion tonnes of ore grading 0.37% copper. The mine is accessible by an 12km access road off the B1 road. The mine is owned by the Canada-based Deep-South Resources, Inc., through its subsidiary, Haib Minerals. Deep-South finished acquiring the mine in 2017 from Teck Resources, in exchange for Teck owning a 35% stake in Deep-South. As of 2021, the mine is in the prospecting stage, with the Supreme Court of Namibia ruling that the company could renew its permit. (en)
