This first geophysics program has return immediate results, identifying a large borehole EM (\"BHEM\") conductor (Figure 1), situated along strike from the historical Cu-Au workings of the Cabaçal mine and within the South Copper Zone (\"SCZ\") sulphide mineralisation recently intercepted by the Company's diamond drill holes (\"DDH\") CD-001\n \n 1\n \n , 003\n \n 2\n \n , 004\n \n 2\n \n .\n \n \n The Company's surface EM survey detected a strong bedrock conductor at Cabaçal South, centred ~400m south of the historic mine (Figure 2), with a conductivity consistent with a potentially massive-sulphide target. This program has also modelled a series of large shallow conductors extending out from the Cabaçal mine's copper -gold workings a further\n \n 200 m\n \n south east (Figure 2).\n \n \n The Company is pleased to announce it has secured at the southern limit of the Project's VMS belt, increasing the tenure from 185 km² to 283 km².
