CASA GRANDE, Ariz. & TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–$ASCU #PFS—Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. (TSX:ASCU | OTCQX:ASCUF) (�ASCU or the Company), an emerging US-based copper developer and near-term producer, announces results from 25 drill holes (30,926 ft | 9,426 m), from its now complete Cactus Prefeasibility Study (PFS) infill drilling program (see FIGURES & PHOTOS 1 8 and TABLE 1 below). The PFS drilling program tightened the drill spacing within the entire integrated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) mine plan, including Cactus East and West and the Stockpile, with the intent of upgrading the Inferred mineral resources to Indicated mineral resources. As a result of tighter drill spacing, data shows an improved resolution of lithological, structural, and mineral zonation controls. Additionally, drilling to support further metallurgical and geotechnical test work was undertaken.
The PFS is expected to be complete by late summer 2022 and will include an updated mineral resource estimate.
Drilling Highlights (please see TABLE 1 below for full set of drilling results)
George Ogilvie, Arizona Sonoran President and CEO stated, These positive drilling results support the conversion of mineral resources to the indicated category ahead of our PFS in Q3 as it pertains to the low-grade, bulk tonnage open pit operation at Cactus West and higher-grade underground Cactus East. We expect the drilling will convert a substantial amount of the leachable copper to a maiden probable reserve, which will be used to update the mine plan and associated economics. Each completed critical path item moves us closer to undertaking a Bankable Feasibility Study with Project Financing and ultimately a construction and development decision.
The PFS-level drilling reduced drill spacing to 250 ft within the PEA mine plan and 200 ft within the Stockpile. Drills focused in the north, south and northwest region of the open pit as well as the Cactus East underground. The total program consisted of 79,175 ft (24,133 m) of drilling, with indications that mineralization remains open to the north, and southwest of the pit, with opportunities to further convert mineralization from the underground. A Feasibility level-drilling program consisting of 72,000 ft (21,946 m) is currently underway, including:
Geological Description
Drilling results in this press release cover the northern and southern infill programs to the Cactus West Deposit and the southern margin of the Cactus East Deposit. Drilling on the southern side of Cactus West intercepted shallow enriched mineralized zones with little to no oxide presence, as interpreted from previous drilling. Mineralization was intercepted from as shallow as 25 ft on the southern side of Cactus West, in proximity to the discovery outcrop, but typically was intercepted from 100 ft depth with low tenor enrichment. Drilling was terminated in primary mineralization characterized as part of the pyrite alteration zone of the porphyry system.
Drilling on the north side of Cactus West intercepted thick low grade continuous oxide mineralization resulting from deeper weathering penetration within a 650 ft (198 m) wide east-west trending fault zone. Enriched mineralization was intercepted at depth prior to the holes being terminated in well mineralized primary mineralization characterized as part of the chalcopyrite-pyrite alteration zone.
Drilling on the south side of Cactus East defines generally the southern extents of mineralization due to the geometry of the Cactus East horst block being truncated by the south and basement faults on the south side. Thick high grade enriched mineralization was intercepted in holes ECE-051 and ECE-053 with little to no oxide and/or primary mineralization. Holes were terminated in the basement fault closing off mineralization at depth.
