A large survey completed in 2025 identified a significant copper anomaly coincident with a prominent magnetic high at the Psyche 2 target area (see news release dated May 6, 2025). A drill rig has been mobilized to the first drill pad at the northern end of the Copper Anomaly.\n\nFigure 2 displays a log-normal index value, combining Cu-Au-Zn-Ni-Co-Mn values, superimposed on the first vertical derivative map. The greater than 95th percentile index values are clustered along the western edge of the soil grid, forming a north-south trending anomaly with a strike length of approximately 4.5 kilometres. This anomaly is located near the Otú Fault and is interpreted to be controlled by associated higher-order structures. The anomalous soil samples also coincide with a prominent magnetic high and a distinct radiometric low (Figures 2 and 3). The cause of the geophysical anomalies is currently unknown due to limited exposure along the length of the anomaly. Geological mapping is underway along the entire length of the anomaly to determine the nature of the underlying bedrock. However, fresh drill core will be critical to resolving the cause of the Copper Anomaly.\nThe depth extent of the magnetic anomaly underlying the copper anomaly has been constrained by a 3D inversion completed by Convolutions Geoscience (Figure 4). The magnetic anomaly appears to be fault‑bounded along its eastern and western margins and extends to depth. Soil anomalies directly overlie the subcrop extent of the body that forms the magnetic anomaly. The Phase 1 drill program is designed to determine the
