(“Marimaca Copper” or the “Company”)\n \n\n (TSX:MARI, ASX:MC2)\n \n is pleased to announce results of further drilling at Pampa Medina Norte, the recently discovered northern extension of the Pampa Medina Deposit.\n \n\n The latest result from hole SMD-01, follows news of the discovery hole - SMR-01 on December 30, 2024, which identified this northern extension of the Pampa Medina deposit, located approximately 26km from the Company’s flagship Marimaca Oxide Deposit (“\n \n MOD\n \n ”).\n \n\n Hole SMD-01 is the first diamond drill hole targeting validation and depth-extension of the reverse circulation (“RC”) drilling. SMD-01 was drilled to a final depth of 950m with assays pending from 600m to the bottom of the hole.\n \n\n\n Highlights\n \n\n\n\n\n Hole SMR-01 and SMD-01 were drilled approximately 400m north of the known northern extent of the Pampa Medina deposit (see Figure 3)\n \n\n\n\n SMD-01 was drilled to a final depth of 950m to investigate the potential for repeating manto-mineralized units at depth in primary mineralization\n \n\n\n\n\n\n SMD-01 confirms the material extension of the sediment-hosted ‘manto-style’ mineralization\n \n\n\n\n Confirmation of high-grade, oxide manto in the upper part of the sedimentary horizon consistent with Pampa Medina deposit and SMR-01\n \n\n\n\n New zone of manto-style sulphide mineralization identified at depth containing dominantly chalcopyrite-bornite mineralization in deeper, interbedded sandstone and conglomerate units with variable intensity\n \n\n\n\n Assays pending for 600m-950m will be released to the market when received and validated\n \n\n\n\n\n\n Highlights from the upper section of SMD-01 are below:\n \n\n\n\n 242m at 0.65% CuT from 252m including:\n \n\n\n\n 68m at 1.20% CuT from 298m, including\n \n\n\n\n 20m at 2.25% CuT from 298m\n \n\n\n\n 32m at 1.03% CuT from 332m\n \n\n\n\n\n\n 74m at 0.84% CuT from 420m, including\n \n\n\n\n 40m at 1.07% CuT from 420m\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Results from the upper zone in SMD-01 validates t...
