Live Webinar and Q&A today; Magnetic Survey Reveals Multiple Large Scale
Marimaca Style Targets and New IOCG District Potential
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 28, 2020 -- Marimaca Copper Corp. (“Marimaca Copper” or the “Company”)
(TSX: MARI) is pleased to announce it will host a webinar today at 11am EDT (8am Pacific; 4pm UK), following the release of
the results of a high resolution, drone mounted, magnetic survey (the “Survey”) in the district surrounding the Company’s
flagship Marimaca Copper Project (“Marimaca” or “the Project”) in Chile.
Questions can be submitted through the webinar platform, or via email to [email protected] no later than two hours
prior to the scheduled start time.

The Survey has identified several large-scale magnetic anomalies which the Company believes are prospective for Marimaca
IOCG style deposits.
Highlights
• Four large scale magnetic anomalies identified, believed to be prospective for Marimaca style deposits
○ All similar size to or larger than the Marimaca Sulphide Target (175 million m 3)
• All targets are adjacent to key regional structures which are believed to control mineralization at Marimaca
○ Regional structures clearly shown in magnetic survey results
○ Naguayán Fault, which controls Marimaca, clearly defined over 6km strike length
○ Cross cutting faults, an important mineralization control at Marimaca, noted at all targets
• Regional structure identified over 25km
○ New ground staked and option agreements executed covering full extent of prospective structures
○ Expanded magnetic surveys planned to identify additional targets for follow-up work
• Three smaller targets on new fault structures, proximal to successful previous shallow scout drilling
campaign
• Potential for blind copper oxide mineralization beneath shallow gravel, as well as large scale sulphide
targets
• Cindy, Llanos and Mercedes Targets marked by high-grade, artisanal, copper workings
○ A key feature of Marimaca
• Improved understanding of Marimaca and its structural controls help to further refine the exploration model
to target repetitions of Marimaca IOCG style mineralization
• Follow-up work underway including IP surveys, surface geological work and drill hole planning
○ Targeting drilling the Marimaca Sulphide Target in early 2021
Sergio Rivera, VP Exploration of Marimaca Copper commented:
“The clarity of the magnetic anomaly at Marimaca gave us a clear impetus to expand the size of our survey to identify new
targets within our now expanded land package. The results are exceptional. There are several large-scale magnetic anomalies
adjacent to the important Naguayán Fault to the north of Marimaca which exhibit similar geometry and spatial relationship with
regional structures. Perhaps most exciting is that many of the target areas are covered by gravel, suggesting that any near
surface oxide mineralization associated with these magnetic anomalies is likely to be blind.
“We believe we have the potential to discover a new copper district in Chile and we are mobilizing geological teams for follow-
up work prior to drilling. At the Marimaca Sulphide Target, we will complete an Induced Polarization survey to further define the
best locations for drilling. We will also commence surface geological work to help prioritize the new targets identified in the
magnetic survey for follow-up work and we look forward to drill testing these as soon as possible.”
