[{"type":"text","content":" Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 12, 2023) - Copperhead Resources Inc. (CSE: CUH) (\"Copperhead\") is pleased to report that it has discovered three highly prospective intrusions on the Red Line project (\"Red Line\" or the \"Project\"), including 2 areas of K-feldspar porphyritic syenite similar to one of the key units found at the giant Galore Creek porphyry Cu-Au deposit. \"We're thrilled by the recent discoveries on the Red Line Project. These findings, marked by their unique characteristics, offer fascinating insights into the region's mineral potential,\" commented Damian Lopez, CEO of Copperhead. HIGHLIGHTS A previously undocumented K-feldspar porphyritic syenite pluton believed to be more than 300 m wide was discovered <1.5 km south of the Red Line claims and immediately staked and added to the Project (see the Company's September 8, 2023 press release). This large body of highly gossanous syenite closely resembles one of the key intrusions associated with the Galore Creek alkalic porphyry Cu-Au-Ag deposits. Numerous K-feldspar syenite boulders were located on the Red Line 2 claim, derived from the upper part of a steep ridge of metasediments and lesser volcanics, many of which are pervasively altered to epidote. The association of strong epidote alteration with the syenite dikes may be indicative of a porphyry copper type system at depth here. A second, previously unknown intrusion was located on the Red Line 2 and 3 claims, in this case a >700 m long body of pervasively altered hornblende granodiorite. The discovery of these 2 highly prospective intrusions, and numerous syenite dikes associated with widespread epidote alteration, has significantly improved the odds of locating a porphyry Cu-Au-Ag type occurrence on the Red Line claims. 2023 EXPLORATION PROGRAM Porphyritic Syenite Pluton: During Copperhead's 2023 exploration program, a very gossanous, potassium feldspar-porphyritic syenite intrusion (field name), thought to be at least 300 m wide, was noted on open ground south of the Red Line claims. The syenite intrusion has numerous large patches of pyritic gossans throughout, potentially indicative of the pyrite shell around a porphyry Cu-Au system. After a brief examination, the area was immediately staked and added to the Red Line property (see the Company's September 8, 20...
