Potential large porphyry cluster emerging: Multiple look-alike magnetic features adjacent to Hot Chili's La Verde copper-gold (Cu-Au) porphyry discovery highlight potential for a broader district-scale porphyry systemThree priority porphyry targets identified, blind exploration opportunity: Generated by recent geochemical and geophysical work programmes, two targets are concealed under shallow gravel coverPhase-two La Verde drill program expanded: Next drilling planned to extend the La Verde Cu-Au discovery (still open laterally and at depth), in addition to first-pass drilling of these additional targets
