[{"type":"text","content":"Hannan Commences 79 Line Kilometres Geophysical Survey on Five Porphyry-Epithermal Targets at Valiente, PeruVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / August 26, 2024 / Hannan Metals Limited's (\"Hannan\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV:HAN)(OTC PINK:HANNF) is pleased to announce that it has commenced a 79 line km Induced Polarization (\"IP) geophysical survey at five porphyry - epithermal targets at the 100%-owned Valiente Project in Peru (Figure 1 and 2).Highlights:Five porphyry - epithermal targets are being surveyed with 79 line km of IP geophysics over the next two months (Figure 2). The aim of the surveys is to both refine drill targets as well as demonstrate the scale to depth of five large mineral systems developed at Valiente. Specific areas to be surveyed include:1. Previsto Central Copper-Gold Porphyry 2D survey: A 12.5 line km dipole-dipole IP survey transecting the very large 5 km x 3 km footprint of a porphyry mineralized system where the company has sampled 126 m @ 0.22% Cu (reported here) (Figure 3).2. Previsto East Epithermal Gold 2D survey: A 2.5 line km dipole-dipole IP survey transecting the 1.8 km x 0.4 km wide strong gold-copper soil and boulder anomaly thought to represent a blind alkalic epithermal target (reported here) (Figure 3).3. Ricardo Herrera Porphyry Copper 3D survey: A 28 line km offset array 3D IP survey crossing the Riccardo Herrera outcropping Miocene calc-alkalic porphyry target where copper mineralization on surface coincides with strong phyllic and intermediate argillic alteration over 800 m x 250 m. A 2D orientation survey in 2023 mapped the Riccardo Herrera porphyry to at least 500 m depth (reported here) (Figure 4). The survey covers the area where the company is currently permitting 14 drill platforms.4. Vista Alegre Epithermal Gold and Porphyry Copper 3D survey: A 23 line km offset array 3D IP survey over the Vista Alegre multi-signature target with strong similarities to both high-sulphidation epithermal gold and porphyry copper mineralization. Sampling of soil and mineralized boulders has outlined a 1.7 km long gold trend with boulders assaying up 2.69 g/t Au (reported here). Surface mapping has also identified zones of porphyry related alteration with strong supergene overprint (Figure 5). The survey covers the area where the company is currently permitting 13 drill platforms.5. Sortilegio Copper-Gold...
