Culpeo Minerals Identifies High-Grade Copper Targets at Fortuna Project, Chile

Project Name: Fortuna Project
Project Location: Chile
Project Stage: Exploration

ProjectBank Summary:
Culpeo Minerals Limited (ASX: CPO) has reported promising surface results from first-pass sampling at the El Quillay West Prospect within its Fortuna Project in Chile. Assay results from rock chip samples revealed high-grade copper mineralisation, with values reaching up to 1.83% Cu, extending over a 1,000m by 500m trend. These findings highlight the potential for significant mineralisation, particularly in areas correlated with previously identified geophysical chargeability anomalies. The company is progressing with trenching at El Quillay South and preparing for drilling at the Vista Montana Prospect.

Culpeo Minerals Highlights:

  • Outcropping copper mineralisation confirmed over a 1,000m by 500m trend at El Quillay West.

  • High-grade copper assays up to 1.83% Cu from surface rock chip sampling.

  • Active exploration continues with trenching underway at El Quillay South and drilling preparation at Vista Montana.

MD/CEO Statement:
Managing Director Max Tuesley commented, "These results are encouraging given they are coincident with the previously identified chargeability targets at El Quillay West and further reveal the mineralisation potential of the large land package we hold at the Fortuna Project. With a strong pipeline of high-quality undrilled copper targets ahead of us, we look forward to providing updates as we continue to advance our projects."
