Rock grab results

Field work in September produced 40 rock grab samples, with four further samples analysed for copper. The company highlighted 3.80% copper with 0.11 grams per tonne gold from one sample and 1.45% copper with 1.05 grams per tonne gold from another. A malachite-rich outcrop extends more than 100 metres within a zone first identified for gold.

Earlier results and next steps

Earlier laboratory rock chip assays from El Dinero had returned up to 2.57% copper and 2.25 grams per tonne gold. The company is completing native title agreements and works permits to allow a maiden drilling program across the project area.

Sector context

Copper prices and interest in copper-gold prospects in Western Australia have supported early stage exploration. The broader index was little changed on 12 November.

Risks and limitations

Rock grab samples are selective and not representative of wider grades. The company says field work is low impact, but native title and permitting steps must be completed before drilling, which could delay progress.

What to watch ahead

Native title agreements, works permits and the start of the maiden drilling program are the next milestones to follow.
