COPAUR MINERALS INC. Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 11, 2021) - CopAur Minerals Inc. (TSXV: CPAU) ("CopAur" or the "Company") is pleased to report results from its 2021 soil program designed to confirm surface mineralization within the historic T-Bill gold zone, as well as provide reconnaissance sampling of surrounding prospective areas on its 100% owned Williams Copper-Gold Project. As a result of the reconnaissance soil and rock sampling program the Company has discovered a new north-trending zone of surface mineralization that extends ~1000 metres in strike-length and is located ~1.1 kilometres west of historic gold-in-soil anomalies (Figure 1). Within this new north-trending mineralized zone soil samples typically assayed up to 320 ppb gold (Au), with one sample assaying up to 6.88 g/t gold and that the rocks samples along the SE trending anomaly zone away from the drilling match in vein style as the TBILL.
The 2021 reconnaissance assay results remain open for future follow-up exploration and are comparable to high-priority mineralized trends previously identified at the T-Bill target, suggesting there is potential for additional peripheral targets in the area that share similar controls on mineralization. The recent completion of a property-wide VTEM airborne geophysical survey will also provide additional context for identifying new prospective exploration targets throughout the largely underexplored 5159-hectare project. Copaur's flagship Williams Copper-Gold Project is located within the prolific Golden Horseshoe area of north-central British Columbia, Canada.
Jeremy Yasenuik, CEO commented, "Our 2021 soil and rock sampling program has successfully shown that there remains substantial potential to identify new mineralized zones throughout our largely underexplored land package, in addition to testing mineralization beyond the confines of historic exploration programs. With significant potential extensions now being identified at the T-Bill zone together with a new mineralized trend to the west the Company will have a number of priority targets for future follow-up that remain largely untested by drilling."
