• High-grade results extend mineralized horizons beyond central corridor
• Company plans to continue exploration to define the full extent of the deposit

Full summary

Marimaca Copper Corp. has reported further high-grade results from its ongoing drilling program at the Pampa Medina deposit. Drilling on 150m centers returned 216m of 0.96% Cu and 7.2g/t Ag from 466m, including 62m of 2.20% Cu and 21.5g/t Ag from 602m downhole from SPRD-15. Step-out drill holes extended the mineralized sediment horizon 300m to the south and west, with strong results from SPRD-12, SPD-13 and SPRD-17. Additional scouting RC holes were completed to the north and northwest of the defined Area of Interest to determine the depth of the start of the target sediments. The Company's VP Exploration, Sergio Rivera, commented on the consistency of the high-grade mineralization across the target horizon and the strong lateral and vertical continuity of the stacked-manto system within the central zone.
