MD/CEO Statement:
Max Tuesley, Managing Director, commented: "To drill and intersect multiple zones of shallow copper mineralisation on our first pass reconnaissance drilling program at Vaca Muerta is extremely positive and highlights the significant potential of the target area. This result coupled with the ongoing exploration success at El Quillay indicates that the Fortuna Project continues to provide potential for a major copper discovery with three distinct targets now identified that include: breccia-hosted copper mineralisation at El Quillay and Vaca Muerta, porphyry copper and gold at La Florida and high-grade structurally controlled copper and gold at Piedra Dura."
