(TSX: ERO, NYSE: ERO)\n \n (\"Ero\" or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the remaining assay results from its 28,000-meter Phase 1 drill program at the Furnas Copper-Gold Project (\"Furnas\" or the \"Project\"), located in the Carajás Mineral Province in Pará State, Brazil.\n \n\n Complete results from the Phase 1 program are highlighted by intercepts that continue to demonstrate high-grade continuity throughout the deposit as well as significantly extend the known limits of mineralization within the high-grade zones (greater than 1% CuEq\n \n 1\n \n ) to depth. To date, mineralization has been extended to a depth of approximately 950 meters down-dip from surface and remains open.\n \n\n New Phase 1 program drill results are highlighted by:\n \n\n\n\n FURN-DD-00322:\n \n 115 meters at 0.76% copper and 0.47 grams per tonne (\"gpt\") gold (0.98% CuEq\n \n 1\n \n ), including 46 meters at 0.81% copper and 0.56 gpt gold (1.11% CuEq\n \n 1\n \n ) and 28 meters at 0.91% copper and 0.71 gpt gold (1.25% CuEq\n \n 1\n \n ). This is the deepest hole drilled to date in the Southeast zone, drilled approximately 220 meters down-dip from the previously known extent of mineralization and 950 meters down-dip from surface.\n \n\n\n\n\n FURN-DD-00305:\n \n 103 meters at 0.88% copper and 0.80 gpt gold (1.26% CuEq\n \n 1\n \n ), including 27 meters at 1.04% copper and 1.18 gpt gold (1.60% CuEq\n \n 1\n \n ), demonstrating continuity of known mineralization within the high-grade envelope of the Southeast zone and supporting conversion of the current mineral resource.\n \n\n\n\n\n FURN-DD-00321:\n \n 115 meters at 0.47% copper and 0.27 gpt gold (0.60% CuEq\n \n 1\n \n ), including 8 meters at 1.13% copper and 0.49 gpt gold (1.36% CuEq\n \n 1\n \n ), the deepest hole drilled in the Northwest zone, approximately 650 meters down-dip from surface, demonstrating further down-dip potential in the Northwest zone, which has had limited extensional drilling to date in comparison to the Southeast zone.\n \n\n\n\n\n FURN-DD-00300:\n \n 80 meters at 1.02% copper and ...
