[{"type":"text","content":"CASA GRANDE, Ariz. & TORONTO / Nov 29, 2022 / Business Wire / Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. (TSX:ASCU | OTCQX:ASCUF) (“ASCU” or the “Company”) today releases assays from 5 drill holes from its 105,000 ft (32,000 m) infill to indicated drilling program at Parks/Salyer (“P/S\"), located ~1.3 mi (2 km) southwest of the Company’s Cactus Mine Project (see FIGURES 1-9). ECP-106 intersected 645 ft of 1.58% CuT and 1.22% Cu TSol, situated 250 ft south of ECP-079 (see PR dated June 23, 2022) in the southern region of the deposit and represents the best hole drilled to date into the Cactus and Parks/Salyer property in terms of grade thickness. The program is reducing drill spacing from 500 ft to 250 ft centres, and intersects continue to support the tenor of mineralization recently released in the inferred Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) at P/S. Highlights: Best hole drilled on the property: ECP-106: 1,116.6 ft (340.3 m) @ 1.22% CuT of continuous mineralization, including: 645.0 ft (196.6 m) @ 1.58% CuT, 1.22% Cu TSol, 0.011% Mo (enriched) 471.6 ft (143.7 m) @ 0.73% CuT, 0.041% Mo (primary) ECP-101: 789.5 ft (240.6 m) @ 0.74% CuT, 0.59% Cu TSol, 0.025% Mo (enriched) Incl. 98.0 ft (29.9 m) @ 1.36% CuT, 1.31% Cu TSol, 0.030% Mo ECP-103: 386.0 ft (117.7 m) @ 0.99% CuT, 0.55% Cu TSol, 0.012% Mo (enriched) Incl. 237.0 ft (72.2 m) @ 1.22% CuT, 0.61% Cu TSol, 0.015% Mo 569.8 ft (173.7 m) @ 0.58 % CuT, 0.016% Mo (primary) ECP-102: 533.0 ft (162.5 m) @ 0.63% CuT, 0.47% Cu TSol, 0.028% Mo (enriched) Infill drilling to 250 ft drill spacing, in support of an initial Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS) in Q4 2023/Q1 2024 George Ogilvie, Arizona Sonoran President and CEO commented, “Drilling is focused on completing the P/S infill drilling in anticipation of upgrading the P/S inferred mineral resource to the indicated category. Two drills are infill drilling, while a third is completing the auxiliary drilling for geotechnical and hydrology necessary to properly study the deposit for future potential mine planning. We remain on track to complete the indicated mineral resource drilling program by end of Q1 2023 with assays expected within Q2 2023. Pending results, we anticipate advancing an integrated Cactus and P/S project, through to Prefeasibility Study by Q4 2023/Q1 2024.” Mineral Resource and Exploration Drilling Program Recap A total of...
