[{"type":"text","content":"Camino Intercepts 1.34% Cu Over 25m From Surface and 0.79% Cu Over 12.7m in New Areas of Copper Mineralization at Los Chapitos, PeruVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / April 11, 2024 / Camino Minerals Corporation (TSXV:COR)(OTC PINK:CAMZF)(WKN: A116E1) (\"Camino\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce exploration results from step-out drilling at its Los Chapitos copper property (\"Los Chapitos\" or the \"Project\") near the coastal city of Chala in the department of Arequipa in Peru. New exploration targets at Diana, Lourdes, Koji Norte, and Koji Sur; were tested for the first time where the Company is targeting large-scale disseminated manto-type copper mineralization to support resource delineation studies at Los Chapitos and to identify new open-pit copper oxide deposits that could potentially be aggregated into a mine plan. The recently completed drill campaign aimed to expand beyond the previously identified Adriana zone, the main zone of mineralization at Los Chapitos with over 20,000 meters of drilling that is summarized in the Company's corporate presentation. Camino and its partner Nittetsu Mining Co., Ltd. (\"Nittetsu\") plan to commence the next phase of drilling in the second half of 2024.Highlights of the First Phase of Drilling:Diana Mineralized Zone:25m @ 1.34 % Cu, 13.1 g/t Ag from surface in DCH-112Lourdes Mineralized Zone:12.7m @ 0.79% Cu from 20.2m depth, including 4.5m @ 1.37% Cu, 6.24 g/t Ag in DCH-100The intercept in DCH-100 potentially extends copper oxide mineralization 120 meters along strike connecting to intercepts in the 2022 drill program at Lourdes of:55.5m @ 0.93% Cu from surface, including 7.5m @ 2.58% Cu in DCH-97 and5.1m @ 1.32% Cu from 29m depth in DCH-92Jay Chmelauskas, CEO of Camino said \"we are committed to expanding the boundaries of exploration at Los Chapitos to unlock the potential of our significant land package. The recent success of our step-out drilling campaign has revealed high-grade copper mineralization across significant intervals, underscoring the potential of the copper mineralizing system at Los Chapitos. The discovery of the Diana zone and the extension of the Lourdes zone reaffirm our strategic focus of identifying new deposits that could significantly contribute to our resource delineation studies and ultimately form our mine planning strategies.\"The objective of the step...
