Two bituminous quartz sandstones from the Cushabatay Formation returned 2.6% to 2.8% copper and 36 to 50 g/t silver confirming the copper/silver potential of this thick sandstone horizon.  Lead-zinc bearing gossans greater than 50m in thickness have been discovered across an 11 kilometre strike;  The footprint of mineralization at Sacanche has now been defined within a 27 kilometre strike.Michael Hudson, Hannan's CEO, states, \"In our first exploration field season at Sacanche, sediment-hosted copper-silver mineralization has been discovered across 27 kilometres of strike. Mineralization has been defined within multiple stratigraphic levels. Our initial expectations have been exceeded and the concept of a new copper district is well supported by data.  Further prospecting results from south Sacanche and Tabalosos, located 80 kilometres to the north, will follow over the coming months as further results from the field season start to be received.\"\nChannel samples are considered representative of the in-situ miner...
