[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aldebaran Resources Inc. (“Aldebaran” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: ALDE, OTCQX: ADBRF) is pleased to report the remaining drill holes from the 2021/2022 drill program at the Altar copper gold project located in San Juan, Argentina. Holes QDM-22-47B, QDM-22-48B, QDM-22-49 and QDM-22-50B were designed to test for extensions of porphyry mineralization and provide sufficient drill hole density to support a maiden 43-101 mineral resource calculation at the Radio Porphyry target. Drill holes QDM-22-45U, QDM-22-45L and QDM-22-45D were designed to test the areas around the high-grade gold intercept from the QDM Gold deposit intercepted in QDM-21-45 (see news release dated February 24, 2022). The holes drilled at the Radio Porphyry successfully extended the mineralized footprint and indicated the system remains open in various directions. The holes following up on the previously reported high-grade gold intercept hit mineralization but were unable to reproduce the previous long runs of higher-grade. However, QDM-22-050B drilled through the western portion of the QDM Gold deposit and intercepted another high-grade gold intercept, providing more evidence that the QDM Gold deposit remains open in several directions and has the potential to host multiple high-grade mineralized structures. Highlights Radio Porphyry QDM-22-047B 1,034.5 m of 0.39% CuEq from 207 m depth Including 72 m of 0.58% CuEq from 491 m depth The easternmost hole drilled to date at the Radio Porphyry indicates that mineralization is still open to the east The hole ended in mineralization QDM-22-048B 334.0 m of 0.49% CuEq from 245 m depth Including 106.95 m of 0.61% CuEq from 464 m depth 535.8 m of 0.45% CuEq from 913.5 m depth Including 106.5 m of 0.59% CuEq from 913.5 m depth The hole ended in mineralization QDM-22-049 611.80 m of 0.45% CuEq from 475 m depth The hole ended in mineralization QDM Gold QDM-22-050B 10.35 m of 11.14 g/t AuEq from 94.3 m depth Mineralization hosted in hydrothermal breccias Intercept outside of current resource pit for the QDM Gold deposit, indicating potential for growth Hole was ended early due to end of the field season and did not meet its intended depth – will likely be re-entered and completed in the upcoming 2022/23 field season QDM-22-045D 1 m of 18.77 g/t AuEq from 44.5 m Min...
