About this update from Canadian Copper, Inc.
[{"type":"text","content":" Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - December 12, 2022) - Canadian Copper Inc. (CSE: CCI) (\"Canadian Copper\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce it has completed its property-wide 2022 trenching program at the Chester Project (\"Chester\") located in the prolific Bathurst Mining Camp (\"BMC\") in Northern New Brunswick. \"All personnel and trenching equipment have been safely demobilized from the Chester Project. To date, we've collected nearly 300 samples with more than 4000 meters of trenching completed this year. Weather cooperated this season at site and resulted in an additional 1000 meters more of trenching than originally scheduled for this program. This new field information will be integral in our 2023 exploration planning efforts which will be designed to test several regional targets at the Chester Property, in addition to near-deposit expansion opportunities,\" Simon Quick, CEO of Canadian Copper. Trenching Program Summary Please see Figure A below and click here to review trenching specific details such as target rationale, trench total length, and visual logs provided by the geologic field team during the exploration program. Next Steps for Chester Regional and Near-Deposit Exploration: The Company expects all assay results from this trenching program by February 2023. Based on any encouraging assays received that match favourable geology, the Company will develop and permit high priority regional targets in 2023 for drilling. Continue developing Chester deposit step-out targets with the objective of extending known mineralization at the Stringer Zone, such as hole C21:07 3.55% Cu over 0.75 meters (full release please click here), which was 200-meters outside any known copper mineralization. Continue developing targets that both increase the size and improve our spatial understanding of secondary commodities (zinc, lead, and silver) within the known Chester MRE, particularly in the East and Central Zones. These commodities improve the economic viability of the Chester Project as they typically occur within 4 meters from surface. The Company will use the above stated steps to develop a comprehensive budget and exploration strategy for the 2023 field season starting in Q2, 2023.
