Coppernico Metals (TSX: COPR) said it significantly expanded the known extent of surface mineralization and reinforced the scale potential of the Nioc system.
Ivan Bebek, chair and CEO of Coppernico Metals, joined Mining Stock Daily on Monday to discuss the company’s latest exploration results from the Sombrero Project in southern Peru.
Coppernico recently reported 155 metres of continuous surface copper mineralization averaging approximately 0.5% copper at the Nioc target. Bebek explains how detailed geological mapping and channel sampling have now extended high-grade copper mineralization well beyond earlier results.
Coppernico is a mineral exploration company. The company's flagship Sombrero project is a land package of approximately 56,400 hectares (564 square kilometres) located in the north-western margins of the Andahuaylas-Yauri trend in Peru. It consists of a number of prospective exploration targets characterized by copper-gold skarn and porphyry systems and precious metal epithermal systems.
