Riverside Resources Inc. announced that significant exploration progress has been made on five (5) copper projects acquired as part of the BHP-Riverside Exploration Funding Agreement program. BHP has allocated USD 1,300,000 in generative funding towards the EFA over two years with an additional USD 1,000,000 in property specific High Value Work Programs (HVWP). Riverside and BHP are presently evaluating the targets that were defined across this 5-project portfolio in the coming weeks and Riverside anticipates that a maiden drill campaign will be completed at 1-2 of these projects during the second half 2021. The HVWP's focus has been on gravity and Magento-Telluric geophysics, which helps to image depth to targets and potential large conductive bodies of potential new porphyry Cu discoveries for some of these five properties. While surface geologic mapping and geochemistry that has been done on these five district properties is generally lateral and distal from the main target, the results continue to be promising. Grades of over 1% copper and 500 ppm molybdenum have been noted, along with favorable geochemical results in margin vectoring elemental associations as well (Green Rock Vectoring). These positive exploration results are providing a strong case for advancing the projects toward the drilling stage. As such, an additional HVWP funding for these next exploration phases will be assessed in the coming 4 weeks.
