[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / May 12, 2026 / Faraday Copper Corp. (\" Faraday \" or the \" Company \") (TSX:FDY) (OTCQX:CPPKF) is pleased to announce the results of 19 drill holes from its Phase IV drill program at the Copper Creek Project, located in Arizona (\"Copper Creek\"). These holes targeted near-surface copper mineralization and addressed infill drilling and geotechnical objectives. Seven holes were drilled in the Globe area, seven holes were drilled in the Marsha area, and five holes were drilled in the Copper Giant area. Paul Harbidge, President and CEO, commented, \"One objective of our Phase IV drill program is expanding and better defining the oxide resource. These drill results demonstrate the presence of additional copper oxide and secondary sulphide material near surface and adjacent to previously defined breccia hosted mineralization. This is particularly exciting as copper oxides provide the opportunity for initial cathode production and allow for the delivery of made-in-America copper.\" Highlights Thirteen drill holes intercepted copper mineralization, typically within 40 metres (\"m\") from surface, supporting the potential for oxide resource growth at Copper Creek that is amenable to heap leach processing. At Copper Giant, intersected 36.00 m at 0.81% copper (0.68% acid soluble copper) from surface in drill hole FCD-26-141. At the Marsha area, six drill holes intersected breccia and vein-hosted copper and molybdenum mineralization, including: 28.00 m at 0.58% copper and 0.10% molybdenum from 46.00 m in drill hole FCD-26-152. This intercept is at the start of a longer intercept of 347.42 m at 0.26% copper from 46.00 m. Identified new breccia mineralization west of the Marsha breccia with drill hole FCD-26-151, intersecting 17.50 m at 0.40% copper near surface, within 76.95 m at 0.23% copper from 106.05 m. At the Globe area, four drill holes intersected mineralization, including: 28.00 m at 0.64% copper (0.36% acid soluble copper) from 20.00 m in drill hole FCD-25-124. (For true width information see Table 1) Supergene Copper Mineralization Supergene copper mineralization forms through weathering of chalcopyrite and pyrite and includes copper oxide minerals such as chrysocolla, malachite and tenorite as well as secondary sulphides, such as chalcocite and covellite.
