/CNW/ - Super Copper Corp. (CSE: CUPR) (OTCQB: CUPPF)
(FSE: N60) ("Super Copper" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has mobilized for its
maiden diamond drilling program at the El Alto target on its Cordillera Cobre copper project (the
"Project"), located 70 km northeast of Copiapó in Chile's prolific Atacama Region. Drill platforms
have been constructed and access roads established, the Company's drilling contractor is being
mobilized to site, and drilling is expected to commence shortly.
Highlights
Site preparation complete:
Construction of drill pads and supporting access roads at the El
Alto target is complete on schedule, positioning the Company for the imminent start of drilling.
Drilling contractor engaged:
An experienced drilling contractor has been engaged to execute
the Phase 1 diamond drilling program.
Permitting in place:
The program is advancing on a SERNAGEOMIN notification basis, which
permits drilling at up to 40 separate platforms.

"Everything to this point, groundwork, geophysics, modelling, and target generation, has been
about earning the right to drill. With platforms built and the rig mobilizing, we're now about to test
that work directly. From here it's about execution, and we look forward to updating the market as
results come in," said
Zachary Dolesky, CEO of Super Copper.
Mobilization and Site Preparation
Earthworks at the Project have been completed using a Komatsu PC300LC excavator, with drill
platforms cut and access roads graded across the El Alto target area in preparation for the arrival of
the drill rig. A total of 8 platforms with at least one hole planned from each location planned for
Phase 1, supporting an initial program of up to 5,000 metres.
The Phase 1 program is designed to test the El Alto target, where previous induced polarization (IP)
surveying defined a chargeability corridor extending over 800 metres along strike.
This chargeability corridor is coincident with a broader 3.5-kilometre magnetic corridor linking the El
Alto and Calcite Hill targets, defined through 3D magnetic vector inversion (MVI) modelling.
Together, these results provide the geological rationale for the maiden drill program.
