[{"type":"text","content":"Arras Minerals Defines a New 14KM Copper Soil Anomaly on the Elemes Project, KazakhstanVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / March 25, 2024 / Arras Minerals Corp. (TSX-V:ARK) (\"Arras\" or \"the Company\") is pleased to introduce the results of its soil sampling program over the Aimandai Target, located within its Elemes Project (\"Elemes\" or the \"Project\") in northeastern Kazakhstan. The Elemes project is composed of several mineral licences that are 100% owned by Arras and not included in the Teck-Arras Strategic Exploration Alliance announced on December 7, 2023.https://youtu.be/GQVP7B4Xd14Highlights from the Soil Sampling programIdentified a second, unexplored 14 km x 3.2 km NE-SW trending coherent copper (\"Cu\") anomaly (>100ppm) called the \"Aimandai Target\" located within the Elemes Project.Large, overlapping Arsenic (\"As\") anomaly interpreted to be associated with an intermediate - to high sulphidation epithermal system indicating a preserved porphyry system.Field mapping and sampling has identified coincident altered rocks typical of a porphyry alteration system that has never been drill tested.The Aimandai Target is a parallel copper anomaly to the \"Berezski Target,\" which Arras announced on February 22, 2024. The Berezski Target is an 8.8-kilometer-long copper anomaly with historical drilling that has yielded notable results such as 132 meters at 0.80% CuEq and 108 meters at 0.94% CuEq from surface. Both the Berezski Target and the Aimandai Target are located within the Elemes Project.Tim Barry, CEO of Arras Minerals stated, \"Our Elemes Project is starting to yield some very exciting potential. Recently we announced the \"Berezski Target\", an 8.8-kilometer-long copper-in-soil anomaly with historical drill holes spread over a 5-kilometer strike of this anomaly, which intercepted 132.6m @ 0.80% CuEq and 108m @ 0.94% CuEq from surface. In this news release we are now announcing a second parallel copper-in-soil anomaly called the \"Aimandai Target\", that stretches over a remarkable 14-kilometer strike and is associated with \"at surface\" porphyry-style alteration that has never been drilled. The large alteration zone and associated arsenic anomaly suggests preservation of the upper and generally higher-grade parts of a porphyry system. In summary, we have now defined what appears to be two parallel, multi-kilometer...
