(CSE: CDPR) (OTCQB: GPPRF) (FRA: N8HP) (“CDPR” or the “Company”) is pleased to report assay results for an additional eight drill holes from the Quiulacocha Tailings Project in Central Peru. Highlights - All intersections are in core lengths from surface and correspond to the predominant silver-zinc-lead zone in the northern section of the Quiulacocha deposit: Hole SPT10 intersected 31 meters (“m”) at 47 grams per tonne (“g/t”) silver (“Ag”), 1.30% zinc (“Zn”), 0.87% Lead (“Pb”), and 58 g/t gallium (“Ga”) Including a 5 m intersection at 0.21% copper (“Cu”) and 0.43 g/t gold (“Au”) Hole SPT11 intersected 27 m at 43 g/t Ag, 1.22% Zn, 0.84% Pb, and 64 g/t Ga Including a 3 m intersection at 0.20% Cu and 0.23 g/t Au Hole SPT21 intersected 27 m at 45 g/t Ag, 1.29% Zn, 0.81% Pb, and 59 g/t Ga Including a 2 m intersection at 0.21% Cu and 0.23 g/t Au Hole SPT22 intersected 26 m at 46 g/t Ag, 1.26% Zn, 0.98% Pb, and 69 g/t Ga Including a 2 m intersection at 0.25% Cu and 0.19 g/t Au Hole SPT23 intersected 28 m at 53 g/t Ag, 1.53% Zn, 1.12% Pb, and 83 g/t Ga Including a 5 m intersection at 0.31% Cu and 0.32 g/t Au Hole SPT32 intersected 31 m at 47 g/t Ag, 1.26% Zn, 0.89% Pb, and 65 g/t Ga Hole SPT1_1 intersected 26 m at 52 g/t Ag, 1.54% Zn, 1.17% Pb, and 84 g/t Ga Including a 1 m intersection at 0.31% Cu and 0.12 g/t Au Hole SPT1_2 intersected 16 m at 48 g/t Ag, 1.39% Zn, 0.99% Pb, and 65 g/t Ga \"Today’s drillhole results are highly encouraging and exceed our initial expectations,\" stated Guy Goulet, CEO. \"Drillholes intersected Cu-Ag-Au tailings with grades reaching 0.53% Cu, 0.45 g/t Au, and 95.8 g/t Ag, with thicker layers and higher grades concentrated in the southern part of the drilling area. Notably, lead and gallium content significantly increase towards the South, with grades exceeding 1% Pb and 100 g/t Ga in several instances. Gallium grades in the South average between 59 and 84 g/t, nearly double the northern averages of 21 to 41 g/t, demonstrating a clear correlation with the lead mineral ga...
