HIGHLIGHTS
“
Copper and gold are not historical exploration targets at Cupric, meaning our identification adds a new dimension to the prospect.
”
— CEO Lyle Thorne
- Tungsten remains the key target: Recent sampling reinforces Cupric’s potential as a tungsten prospect, with the metal’s strategic importance adding to the opportunity.
- Copper and gold add a new dimension: Initial sampling has identified mineralisation that was not previously a focus of historical exploration at Cupric, opening up additional exploration potential.
- Historical workings offer a head start: Diablo plans to access old underground adits for geological mapping and verification sampling to better understand the mineralised system.
- Building a broader exploration pipeline: Cupric adds to the Horn Project’s emerging polymetallic potential, with copper, gold, silver, antimony and tungsten among the metals being investigated.
- Modern exploration could define the next steps: The underground work is intended to validate Diablo’s geological model and help prioritise targets for potential maiden drilling.
“
These results further support our view overall that the Horn project is evolving into an exciting district-scale polymetallic opportunity.
