(TSX-V:TORQ)(OTCQB:TRBMF) (\"Torq\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce drill results from the Phase III diamond drilling campaign at its Santa Cecilia gold - copper porphyry project, located in the prolific Maricunga belt, in the Atacama region of Chile (Figure 1). The campaign consisted of five diamond drill holes, totalling 4,061.5 meters (m).The Pircas Norte and Gemelos Norte targets are located within 1 - 2 kilometres (km) of the Caspiche gold-copper deposit held by Norte Abierto (Newmont and Barrick), estimated to contain 1.29 billion tonnes grading 0.54 g/t gold and 1.17 billion tonnes grading 0.21% copper in measured and indicated resources, with additional inferred resources (see Barrick Gold Corporation news release dated February 6, 2025).Three drill holes completed at Gemelos Norte target confirmed a new copper gold porphyry discovery within the Santa Cecilia project including 450m of 0.51 g/t gold and 0.155% copper while step-out drilling at Pircas Norte extended mineralization at depth drilling 206m of 0.99 g/t gold and 0.109% Cu within 266m of 0.81 g/t Au and 0.097% Cu.Gemelos Norte Discovery (3 new holes): (Table 1 and Figures 2 and 3).SC25-DDH-007: 450m of 0.51 g/t Au, 0.155% Cu within 652m of 0.42 g/t Au and 0.134% CuSC25-DDH-009: 260m of 0.30 g/t Au with 0.09% CuSC25-DDH-010: 736m of 0.35 g/t Au with 0.079% CuPircas Norte Step-outs (2 holes):SC25-DDH-006: 266m of 0.81 g/t Au with 0.097% Cu, extending mineralization in SC24-DDH-005 (2024) from 496m to 642m.SC25-DDH-008: Two mineralized zones west of SC24-DDH-003:226m of 0.24 g/t Au with 0.041% Cu324m of 0.28 g/t Au with 0.076% CuShawn Wallace, CEO and Chair of Torq, states, \"These results reinforce the scale of what we're uncovering at Santa Cecilia. With Gemelos Norte now confirmed as our third discovery, we may be looking at a district-scale gold-copper system that remains wide open in multiple directions. The sheer size of these intercepts, combined with increasing grades, points to a project with significant potential. Our agreement with Gold Fields continues to validate this vision - their spen...
