Diamond Drilling Commences at Nobel Resources Cuprita Copper Project, Chile
DIAMOND DRILLING COMMENCES AT NOBEL RESOURCES
CUPRITA COPPER PROJECT, CHILE
TORONTO, ONTARIO January 16, 202 6 – Nobel Resources Corp. (TSX – V: NBLC) (the
“Company” or “Nobel”) is pleased to announce diamond drilling has commenced at the
Cuprita copper project, Chile (“Cuprita” or the “Project”). Nobel is conducting the first ever
diamond drill program on this highly prospective Project (Figure 1). Exploration surveys over
the past year by Nobel’s Chilean technical team indicate the Project features key geological
and geophysical characteristics that are associated with mineralized porphyry copper
systems in this region (see news release dated January 7, 2026):
• Located within the Paleocene porphyry copper belt
• Widespread copper mineralization in outcrops (including small scale mines) and
extensive copper geochemistry anomalies
• Presence of an extensive leach cap , commonly associated with porphyry copper
deposits in this region
• Extensive development of tourmaline breccia zones, a common pathfinder for
porphyry copper projects in the region
• IP anomalies and magnetic lows associated with the target area, similar to low-pyrite
porphyry copper deposits in the region
• A structural setting similar to major deposits, including El Salvador, Cerro Colorado,
Spence, Sierra Gorda and Fortuna – northeast structural corridor crosscut by
northwest secondary faults
Larry Guy, Chairman and CEO of Nobel, states: “We are excited to commence 2026 with the
initial diamond drilling campaign of the highly prospective copper porphyry targets at
Cuprita. The work that the Nobel team has done outlines a compelling area with extensive
copper miner alization and associated alteration at surface - with key characteristics
typically associated with mineralized porphyry copper deposits in this region of Chile”.
