Gold And Copper Intervals Inside The Springer-Perry Conceptual Pit


TORONTO - QC Copper and Gold Inc. reported on the additional 13 diamond drill holes with multiple wide stacked intersections of copper mineralization. These results continue to emphasize the gold-rich nature of the veins in the southern part of the Springer conceptual pit and highlight high copper grades on Perry and the open pit resource potential of the Eastern Veins.

South Springer Pit Area Highlights: OPM-23-253: 0.79% Copper and 0.50 gpt Gold over 9.0m from 40.5m, and 0.36% Copper and 0.25 gpt Gold over 100.5m, from 64.5m; OPM-23-255: 0.44% Copper and 0.30 gpt Gold over 55.5m from 78m; OPM-23-250: 0.37% Copper and 0.22 gpt Gold over 73.5m from 108m; OPM-23-248: 2.95 gpt Gold over 2.8m from 15m, and 1.49% Copper and 1.11 gpt Gold over 4.8m, from 63m.

Perry Mine Area Highlights: OPM-23-245: 1.68% Copper over 4.5m from 154.5m, followed by 0.95% Copper and 0.22 gpt Gold over 9.0m, from 174m.

East Veins Highlights: OPM-23-252: 6.36% Copper and 0.14 gpt Gold over 2.9m from 114m, followed by 0.33% Copper over 10.5m from 162m.

OPM-23-247: 0.39% Copper over 6.0m from 69m, followed by 0.34% Copper over 4.0m from 124.5m, followed by 0.26% Copper over 22.5m from 142.5m.

"These results continue to provide encouragement that the revised mineral resources estimate (MRE) that is currently being prepared will improve over the 2021 MRE which generated a resource of 81.7 million tonnes at a grade of 0.65% Copper and 0.31 gpt Gold in the Measured and Indicated categories and an additional 21.4 million tonnes at 0.51% Copper and 0.30 gpt Gold. The revised MRE on Opemiska will include an additional 175 diamond drillholes bringing the total drilling to 66,341m in 280 diamond drill holes," said Charles Beaudry, Director, Vice President of Exploration.
