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

[{"type":"text","content":"CASA GRANDE, Ariz. & TORONTO / Feb 25, 2025 / Business Wire / Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. (TSX:ASCU | OTCQX:ASCUF) (“ASCU” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that initial Parks/Salyer infill drilling results are confirming the continuity of mineralization at tighter drill spacings, and additionally, have extended the high grade core at the Parks/Salyer copper deposit, onto the MainSpring property at the Cactus Project, in Arizona (see FIGURES 1-10). Results from the program are in line with expectations, with a few positive outliers notably from ECM-289, ECM-299 and ECM-244. Three drill rigs are focused on mineral resource infill drilling, while a fourth rig is focused on both mineral resource infill drilling at Cactus West and providing downhole data for the geotechnical and hydrological programs necessary for the planned Pre-Feasibility Study (“2025 PFS”) expected in the second half of 2025. Additionally, Doug Bowden will be stepping down as Vice President Exploration, effective April 1, 2025. Christopher White will be stepping into his place as Manager, Geology to lead the infill drilling programs at Cactus, as ASCU moves through technical studies. Chris joined in 2023 as Chief Mine Geologist and has worked closely alongside Doug since then, overseeing the geology and exploration programs.
