About this update from Arizona Sonoran Copper Co., Inc.

[{"type":"text","content":"CASA GRANDE, Ariz. & TORONTO / Oct 30, 2023 / Business Wire / Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. (TSX:ASCU | OTCQX:ASCUF) (“ASCU” or the “Company”) announces drill assays from 5 holes at Cactus East and 4 from Parks/Salyer (18,467 ft | 5,629 m) (see FIGURES 1-18). Drilling at 125 ft (38 m) drill spacings demonstrating the continuity and thicknesses of mineralization within the proposed Cactus East and Parks/Salyer high grade underground oxide and enriched mineralized zones. Additionally, the Company has begun exploratory drilling at the MainSpring property (Parks/Salyer South) (FIGURE 4), with five holes now complete. The program consists of up to 10 drill holes, targeting shallow mineralization 1,500 ft (~450 m) south of the Parks/Salyer deposit. The Parks/Salyer deposit contains 143.9 Mtons @ 1.009% Cu M&I and 48.4 Mtons @ 0.967% Cu Inferred (PR October 16, 2023) and remains open to the south onto the MainSpring property. Historic ASARCO drilling supports the continuity of gradually shallower mineralization towards the south, which ASCU is testing via the current drill program.
