LONDON, Oct. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Getech, a world-leading locator of subsurface resources, has joined a consortium of academia and industry to speed up the understanding of copper deposits required for the discovery of critical metal needed for renewable technologies.

Key Points: 
  • The consortium is taking a holistic mineral system approach to sedimentary copper discovery.
  • This requires an understanding of the combination of geological processes that are required to form and preserve sedimentary deposits, in this case copper.
  • With the looming world-wide copper deficit, sedimentary hosted copper deposits offer a promising and more sustainable alternative for meeting the increasing global demand for this energy transition critical mineral.
  • Leveraging market-leading geologic and geophysical data, advanced geoscientific techniques and state-of-the-art technology, Getech can add value to exploration for energy transition minerals like copper and lithium.

Aurania Reports That Drilling at Tsenken N1 Provides Evidence of a Link with the Tiria-Shimpia Target

The change from copper-centric in the Tsenken area to zinc-rich in the Tiria-Shimpia target is consistent metal zoning that is evident in the Kupferschiefer.

Key Points: 
  • The change from copper-centric in the Tsenken area to zinc-rich in the Tiria-Shimpia target is consistent metal zoning that is evident in the Kupferschiefer.
  • We optimized some of the concepts on the basis of the features that we saw in the drill core, and I have encouraged the exploration team to keep drilling."
  • The target is copper in the same sedimentary unit in the Tsenken area as contains zinc-silver in the Tiria-Shimpia area.
  • This target is brought to relatively shallow depth on a geological fault as illustrated in Figure 2.

CONEJO assay results.

Key Points: 
  • CONEJO assay results.
  • Max cautions investors that rock panel and representative sampling can both be selective and are not necessarily representative of the mineralization.\nMax interprets the sediment-hosted stratabound copper-silver mineralization of the Cesar Basin to be analogous to the Kupferschiefer Basin in Poland.
  • Highlight assays above 9% copper and 50 g/t silver:\nEarly April 2021, Max identified the URU zone, located 30-km south of the CONEJO zone.
  • Sampling indicated the presence of copper mineralization extending over 3.7-km, and open in all directions.
