Copper Giant Identifies 13 New Exploration Targets Beyond Mocoa Resource — Copper Giant Resources Corp.

Event summary

Copper Giant identified 17 ranked target areas, 13 of which lie beyond the current Mocoa resource footprint.
The study covers an 81-square-kilometre area centered on the Mocoa deposit, with drilling continuing at La Estrella.
The predictive model corroborated five of the nine exploration targets defined by the Company in 2022.
The highest-ranked areas outside the resource footprint lie along the Mocoa – La Estrella corridor, where drilling is underway.

The big picture

Copper Giant's identification of new exploration targets beyond the Mocoa resource footprint underscores the potential for significant resource expansion in an underexplored Jurassic porphyry belt. The study's success in corroborating previous exploration targets highlights the robustness of the Company's geological interpretation and the potential for multiple mineralized centers. This development comes as the global demand for copper continues to rise, driven by the energy transition and infrastructure needs.
