EuroPacific Metals, led by CEO Karim Rayani, has announced an expansion of its drilling program at the Miguel Vacas mine area. The company will extend an additional drill hole to a depth of 350 meters, targeting the high-grade zone below the fourth hole where a mineralized section was previously intersected. This new hole will also explore an area approximately 80 meters north, where earlier results revealed a 22.8-meter section grading 2.76% copper, including a 9.0-meter interval grading an impressive 7.49% copper. Rayani explained the decision to extend the program, aiming to test the 'fresh' mineralization below the oxidized rich material in the same section as hole EBMV004, which encountered a wide mineralized section. The mineralized system at Miguel Vacas extends for at least 2 kilometers along strike and remains open at depth, including an 80-meter supergene blanket containing copper carbonates, phosphates, and oxides transitioning to a sulphide assemblage primarily composed of chalcopyrite and pyrite. With 10 holes totaling 1,060 meters completed to date, this expanded drilling program underscores @europacificmetals' commitment to thoroughly exploring and developing the Miguel Vacas copper deposit, with the goal of uncovering substantial resources and enhancing the project's overall value. #mining #exploration #copper

Pan Global Resources Inc. (TSX.V: PGZ I OTCQX: PGZFF)) Escacena Project continues to deliver value-enhancing results with news today that the Company has intersected 1.6% copper over 9.7 meters and confirming continuity of La Romana copper-tin-silver discovery to over 1.4km – and uncovered a new, higher-grade 1%+ copper sector. Results from nine new drillholes were reported from the discovery in the Company’s 100% owned Escacena Project in the Iberian Pyrite Belt, southern Spain, a prolific polymetallic volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) district and tier one mining jurisdiction. The significance of these drill results: - The near surface copper mineralization is extended more than 50m west and is now continuous for a total strike length of 1.4km, remaining open for further expansion along strike to the northwest and down-dip - A new higher grade (1%+ copper) sector has been identified with grades ranging as high as 7.7% copper over 1.7m. This mineralization is coincident with a 290m x 90m down-hole electromagnetic (DHEM) target, providing a strong guide to potential extensions for future drilling The drillholes released today are part of a 25-hole program aimed at delineating the western extension of the La Romana deposit.

Cooper Metals Uncovers Potential Gold-Copper Feeder System at Brumby Ridge (ASX: CPM) Managing Director, Ian Warland, commented: “The new drill assay results at Brumby Ridge are in line with visual results reported last month. Our new geological interpretation backed up by recent drilling and consultation, provides encouragement for investigating the potential for further crosscutting mineralised fault breccia zones that may have acted as feeder veins to the main NNW trending mineralised Cu-Au veins. Mineralisation remains open at depth and less than half of the identified strike length of the vein system has been drill tested.” “With the copper price near all-time highs and a healthy cash position, Cooper is excited to continue regional exploration focussing on the major NW trending regional Brumby Fault and its potential to host larger crosscutting mineralised fault breccia zones. We currently have teams in the field conducting important, targeted geochemical sampling and mapping over the area to delineate further drill targets.” Read our article below: https://lnkd.in/gcXrAwKK #copper #mining #exploration #asx
