[{"type":"text","content":"Vancouver, British Columbia – TheNewswire - March 03, 2025 - Leocor Mining Inc. (the “Company” or “Leocor”) (CSE: LECR, OTCQB: LECRF; Frankfurt: LGO0) (formerly Leocor Gold Inc.), a junior resource company focussed on the exploration and development of gold-copper projects in Eastern Canada, is pleased to provide an update on the ongoing drill program at the Baie Verte project, a 2,002-ha contiguous exploration package located on the north central coast of the island of Newfoundland in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Crews completed the Copper Creek drill drilling campaign on Feb 27th after successfully drilling 21 diamond drill holes. Drilling equipment is now remobilizing the company’s Dorset project to explore gold mineralization targets defined by anomalous surface geochemistry, ground magnetometer survey interpretation and the company’s previous trenching results reported (news release dated February 20th 2025). Following the previously reported occurrences of believed chalcopyrite mineralization in 10 of the programs first 13 holes, the company is pleased to report that at least 15 of the campaign’s 21 holes encountered mineralization interpreted to be chalcopyrite over various lengths and in various visually estimated abundances with 3 holes intersecting intervals of semi-massive pyrite over drilled lengths between 0.2m and 2.2m. Highlights are described in further detail below. Hole 25-CC-012 intersected intermittent intervals of interpreted chalcopyrite in association with other sulphide minerals between 10m and 80m downhole. Mineralized intervals range between 0.3m and 3.1m in drilled length and contain interpreted chalcopyrite in visually estimated model abundances of 0.1% (trace) to 2%. The hole’s most significant interval with respect to chalcopyrite accumulation, 23.6m to 26.0m (2.4m length) contained a visually estimated modal abundance of wispy chalcopyrite of 2%. Hole 25-CC-013 intersected intermittent intervals of interpreted chalcopyrite in association with other sulphide minerals between 11.5m and 80m downhole. Mineralized intervals range between 0.8m to 12m in drilled length and contain interpreted chalcopyrite in visually estimated modal abundances of 0.1% (trace) to 1%. The hole’s most significant interval, with respect to chalcopyrite accumulation, 40.3m to 50.7m (10.4m length) containe...
