(“Pecoy Copper” or the “Company”) (TSXV: PCU; FSE: D5E; OTCQB: PCUUF) is pleased to report assay results from drill hole PEC-25-066, completed as part of its ongoing Phase 1 diamond drill program at its 100%-owned Pecoy Project in southern Peru. Hole PEC-25-066 was drilled in the South Breccia Zone approximately 195 metres west from hole PEC-25-065 and has returned a broad interval of continuous copper-gold-molybdenum-silver mineralization beginning near surface and extending to the end of hole. The results represent an excellent follow-up to PEC-25-065. Together, holes PEC-25-065 and PEC-25-066 have now returned two consecutive kilometre-scale mineralized intervals in the South Breccia Zone, confirming strong lateral and vertical continuity. PEC-25-066 Highlights: Intersected 1,020.50 m at 0.43% Cu, 0.09 g/t Au, 1.51 g/t Ag and 0.009% Mo from 48 m depth, our second kilometre-scale interval in the South Breccia zone.Located approximately 195 m west from PEC-25-065.Extends mineralization approximately 306 metres below the current resource pit shell.Ended in mineralization, remains open at depth.The 1,020.50 m copper interval grades ~26% above the current inferred resource grade of 0.34% Cu. The broad interval includes higher-grade sections: 48 m at 0.94% Cu, 0.21 g/t Au, 3.05 g/t Ag, 0.014% Mo from 54 m,242 m at 0.73% Cu, 0.10 g/t Au, 2.63 g/t Ag, 0.016% Mo from 386 m,167.85 m at 0.33% Cu, 0.06 g/t Au, 1.05 g/t Ag, 0.006% Mo from 776 m located below the existing resource pit shell, and;18 m at 0.50% Cu, 0.05 g/t Au, 1.48 g/t Ag, 0.029% Mo from 1050 m to end of hole, indicating the system remains open at depth. These results and higher-grade sections further reinforce management’s view that South Breccia may contain a higher-grade domain that could be relevant to the evaluation of a potential starter-pit style development concept in future studies, subject to additional drilling, resource modelling, metallurgical work and economic analysis. Vincent Metcalfe, Chief Executive Officer of Pecoy Copper, commented: “Hole PEC-25-066 is an excellen...
