(TSXV: CDB) (OTCQB: CDBMF) otherwise \"Cordoba\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the commencement of a 2,300-metre exploration diamond drilling program at the 100%-owned San Matias Project.Highlights: Two high-priority exploration targets: the Alacran Porphyry Target and the Alacran Northern Extension Target, will be tested with an initial 2,300-metre diamond drill program - commencing immediately. Based on results, the drill program may be increased to 3,000 metres.Cordoba has identified one late-mineral intrusive breccia phase at Alacran which truncates and reworks the Deposit (refer to Cordoba's news release dated October 30, 2018). Notably, the dacitic breccia phase contains clasts of porphyry-style mineralization with potassic alteration - a potential indication of an underlying porphyry source. Cordoba will test the Alacran Porphyry Target with two drill holes (refer to collars ACD084 and ACD087 in Figure 1).The Alacran Northern Extension Target is defined by extensive soil and stream sediment geochemical anomalies, specifically elevated levels of copper, gold, silver, molybdenum, zinc, tungsten and indium, which are key pathfinder metals in the district. Three drill holes are planned to test this target (refer to collars AEXP001, AEXP002 and AEXP003 in Figure 1).\"We are encouraged by the results from the extensive fieldwork program of the San Matias Project,\" commented Ms. Armstrong-Montoya, President and CEO of Cordoba. \" The drill program will uncover the geological potential of the underlying porphyry source and northern extension of the Alacran Deposit.\" Figure 1: Map showing the planned drill holes (black dots) at Alacran Porphyry and Alacran Northern Extension Targets.To view an enhanced version of Figure 1, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/3116/105289_fcc3c314e4195843_002full.jpg2021 Drill Program Based on the results from the extensive fieldwork program completed in 2018, Cordoba has prioritized two exploration targets at...
