(“Coro” or the “Company”) (TSX: COP) is pleased to provide an update for the Marimaca Project in the Antofagasta Region of Chile. Results have now been received from 40 RC holes for a total 9,950 metres in and around the Tarso area. The drill results confirm the extension of mineralization from Atahualpa towards the north-east with the Tarso holes also delineating the edge of mineralization. These results mark the completion of the Phase II RC drilling program and will be incorporated in the expanded resource calculation which remains on track for publication by the end of September 2019. Highlights Results from the drilling confirmed oxide mineralization, including: Hole ATR-99, from 56 to 138 metres, 82 metres averaging 0.72% CuT Hole ATR-101, from 68 to 126 metres, 58 metres averaging 0.60% CuT, including from 78 to 116 metres 38 metres averaging 0.96% CuT Hole ATR-102, from 68 to 84 metres, 16 metres averaging 1.12% CuT Hole ATR-104, from 60 to 86 metres, 26 metres averaging 0.87% CuT, and from 108 to 122 metres, 14 metres averaging 0.87% CuT Results from the drilling confirmed mixed oxide-enriched sulphide mineralization, including: Hole ATR-98, from 134 to 144 metres, 10 metres averaging 0.68% CuT, including from 118 to 138 metres, 20 metres averaging 1.45% CuT Hole TAR-13, from 66 to 786 metres, 10 metres averaging 1.65% CuT Results from the drilling confirmed primary sulphide mineralization, including: Hole ATR-62, from 236 to 246 metres, 10 metres averaging 1.30% CuT Hole ATR-63, from 240 to 258 metres, 18 metres averaging 1.13% CuT Hole TAR-04, from 204 to 226 metres, 22 metres averaging 0.72% CuT Commenting on the results, Sergio Rivera, Vice President of Exploration said: “The Tarso sector is the final area to be explored in the expanded Marimaca Phase II exploration program. The results are positive as they confirm further extension of the mineralised zone at Marimaca into the Tarso area and the mineralized body at Marimaca now measures approximately 1,400 metres in length, by 700 metres wide and is 100 to 300 metres thick, averaging approximately 120 metres. Furthermore, as results reported from Atahualpa last month, where some drill hole returned primary sulphide intercepts, it is interesting to see more drilling in...
