The drill hole intersected the border of the magnetic susceptibility high identified in the 2020 geophysical campaign. This significant magnetic anomaly beneath the current MOD dips to the east with the same geometry as the interpreted extension of the structures that host the copper oxide mineralization at the MOD. True widths are unknown at this stage.
Combined with oxides, MAD-22 returned a full intersection of 240 metres at 1.01% total copper from surface in two separate zones (oxide and primary sulphide).
“While previous drilling into the down-dip geophysical targets identified in 2020 and 2021 intersected additional mixed and secondary sulphides at depth, MAD-22 represents the first significant primary sulphide intersection to date and could represent a primary high-grade feeder structure as interpreted in our geological model for the deposit,” VP exploration Sergio Rivera said in a news release.
“With the 2022 drill…
