Ridgestone Assays up to 3.5% Copper at El Cobre Drill Target on Wholly-Owned Rebeico Project
The program focused on an area around the past producing El Cobre copper mine as well as an approximately 5.25 square-kilometre area within the Rebeico concessions.
- The program focused on an area around the past producing El Cobre copper mine as well as an approximately 5.25 square-kilometre area within the Rebeico concessions.
- El Cobre: sampling from the mineralized structure outcropping on surface returned up to 3.5% copper over 1.0 metres, with sampling from the historic dumps ranging from 2.01 to 2.65% copper.
- Permitting: Permitting underway for a drill program to test the high-priority copper targets, including the El Cobre mine.
- Additionally, sampling from waste dumps from historical mining included 2.65% copper over 3.0 metres, 2.62% copper over 1.0 metre, 2.21% copper over 1.5 metres, and 2.01% copper over 3.0 metres.
