Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – July 11, 2023) – Copperhead Resources Inc. (CSE: CUH) (“Copperhead” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the addition of a new mineral claim (the “New Claim”) to the Red Line Project (“Red Line” or the “Project”).
The Project is located in the central part of the “Golden Triangle” mineralized district of NW British Columbia. It is situated along the “Eskay Rift” belt of rocks, known for hosting the Eskay Creek Au-Ag deposit located 30 km to the south. The existing claims cover a section of the “red line” contact between Lower Jurassic Hazelton Group rocks and Upper Triassic Stuhini Group rocks, with an area of fault-related conglomerates to the south. The vicinity of this regional contact is highly prospective, hosting numerous porphyry Cu-Au-Ag and gold deposits.
The New Claim was staked by Romios Gold Resources Inc. (“Romios”) and contributed to Red Line optioned by Copperhead from Romios pursuant to the option agreement dated April 6, 2022 between Copperhead and Romios.
“We are excited to incorporate this New Claim into the Project,” said Damian Lopez, CEO of Copperhead. “This strategic collaboration with Romios reinforces our commitment to expanding our presence and increasing exploration opportunities.”
Following the integration of the New Claim into the Project, the property size of the Project has been expanded to a total of nine claims, covering a combined area of 3,282 hectares. The New Claim spans over 865 hectares, significantly expanding the Project’s footprint (Figure 1).
Strategically situated within Red Line, the New Claim covers the potential upstream source area of syenite boulders that exhibit visual similarities to key intrusive rocks found at significant alkalic porphyry Cu-Au-Ag prospects in the region, such as Galore Creek and Burgundy Ridge.
