This might 'speak' to your issue. I ran a program last year(?) around mineral interests of companies on the ASX and ran one specifically addressing copper. (MCAP stuff would be out of date but company 'sub-industry' stuff is usually pretty stable.
In any case, it is an analysis of all companies on the ASX that have an 'interest' in Copper (anything from exploring to producing). The cut off was 5 different mineral interests
18 were in the Copper Sub-Industry Category and 183 outside the Copper Sub-Industry. So if HGO moves into the Copper Sub-Industry, you can see how the 'field' diminishes.
Column two lists the companies according to their 'Mineral Mix'. Note that even in the Copper Sub-Industry, 10 companies have an 'interest' in minerals other than copper..
At the time of the analysis, HGO was in the category which I have highlighted in yellow.
Out of curiosity, could you let me know if this stuff is of interest or useful.
