Super Copper Corp. announced the completion of its Stage 1 field exploration program at the Company's project in Chile. This milestone marks the culmination of focused exploration efforts designed to identify high-priority targets and pave the way for further advancement of the property.
Building on the successful launch of the program in November 2024, the Stage 1 work program achieved the following key objectives: Highlights of Stage 1 Program: Sample Collection: Over 100 surface samples were collected across targeted zones to analyze mineralization potential, which have been sent to a laboratory for geochemical analysis; Integration of Hyperspectral Data: Results of WorldView-3 hyperspectral data covering 79 square kilometers identified exploration areas with significant mineral alteration patterns, such as sericite, kaolinite, calcite, and hematite, that one or more could be indicative of potential copper mineralization and warrant follow-up exploration; Geophysical Flyovers: High-resolution aerial surveys captured key geophysical data to refine structural and lithological interpretations; and Detailed Mapping and Analysis: Comprehensive geological mapping provided insight into the structural features, rock types, and alteration zones across the property. All collected samples have been sent to a certified laboratory for geochemical analysis. Sample geochemical results are expected to be published in the coming months, with findings to be released upon completion of detailed reviews.
Next Steps: The results from Stage 1 will guide the Company's plans for the next steps of exploration in 2025, including identifying potential drill targets in high-priority zones. The integration of hyperspectral data and geochemical results will enhance precision in identifying potential copper mineralization across the project area.
