Perseverance Drilling Update
The Company reports that drilling of hole K -24 is still ongoing at its Perseverance porphyry c opper
exploration project in Arizona. The Perseverance project is a Joint Venture between Cordoba Minerals
Corporation (51%) and Bell Copper (49%), with Cordoba Minerals acting as manager. Bell Copper is drilling
hole K-24, at its discretion and cost, to test two distinct, stacked targets with a single drillhole. An upper
target comprises the large magnetotelluric (MT) anomaly (“Eastern MT Anomaly”
https://cordobaminerals.com/news/cordoba-minerals-commences-diamond-drilling-at-perseverance-
porphyry-copper-project-in-arizona-usa/) first identified in 2020. The lower target tests the same fault
slip vector that yielded the chalcocite blanket intersection in BS-3 at Bell’s Big Sandy project, 30 kilometers
to the south.
Qualified Person
The technical content of this release has been reviewed and approved by Timothy Marsh, PhD, PEng., the
Company’s CEO and President. No mineral resource has yet been identified on the Perseverance project.
There is no certainty that the present exploration effort will resu lt in the identification of a mineral
resource or that any mineral resource that might be discovered will prove to be economically recoverable.
