• Diamond drilling at Lana Corina returned a long, high-grade intersection from near-surface of
298m of 0.98% CuEq in CMLCD0141, with drilling continuing to test the full extent of mineralisation
at depth.
• Subsequent assays, returned post quarter end from diamond hole CMLCD014 further increased the
mineralised interval to 454m @ 0.93% CuEq from 90m, with the following notable copper
equivalent results2:
• 78m @ 1.24% CuEq from 200m1
• 68m @ 1.14% CuEq from 320m1
• 40m @ 1.20% CuEq from 394m2
• Drilling is ongoing in CMLCD014, reaching a current depth of (870m), with assays outstanding for a
further 96m and results expected in the coming weeks.
• The mineralised zone encountered in CMLCD014 has expanded to a projected surface footprint of
600m x 400m and to a depth of 800m and remains open in all directions2.
• Results from reconnaissance rock-chip sampling at Vista Montana returned high-grade
mineralisation of up to 2.62% Cu, defining an area of anomalous copper 1km-long by 400m wide.3
FORTUNA PROJECT (80% CULPEO7)
• Remodeling of geophysical data identified additional targets at El Quillay West, further
enhancing the significant exploration opportunity within the 4,025-hectare Fortuna Project
area.4,5
• The El Quillay West target demonstrates potential to host additional zones of mineralisation
500m to the southwest of the main El Quillay Fault Zone.
• Reconnaissance drilling at the Vaca Muerta and El Quillay North targets intersected multiple zones
of shallow, high-grade copper mineralisation, with notable intersections that included6:
• 13.3m @ 0.59% CuEq from 20m (El Quillay North)
• 4m @ 0.65% CuEq from 45m (Vaca Muerta)
• 7m @ 0.67% CuEq from 55m, including, 1m @ 2.19% CuEq (Vaca Muerta)
• 2m @ 1.33% CuEq from 95m (Vaca Muerta)
