- High-grade copper mineralization confirmed at Solis Minerals' (SLM) Cinto Project in Peru.
- Potential mineralization area spans 3km by 0.75km.
- Drilling expected to start in the second half of 2025.
Solis Minerals (SLM) has reported promising results from its recent channel sampling at the Cinto Project in Peru, identifying high-grade copper mineralization. Channel 11 displayed significant findings with a length of 26.5 meters at 0.28% Cu, including a higher-grade section measuring 5.4 meters at 1.0% Cu.
This copper mineralization could extend over a 3km by 0.75km area. The Cinto Project is located in a geologically favorable setting along the Incapuquio Fault System, just 15km away from Peru's major Toquepala copper mine. This position enhances the site's potential for discovering large-scale porphyry copper deposits.
Currently, Solis Minerals has initiated the permitting process for drilling activities, which are anticipated to commence in the latter half of 2025. This initiative is supported by geophysical data obtained through drone magnetometry, which underscores the project’s scale potential and reveals new target areas.
As part of its strategy, Solis Minerals continues to explore the potential of Cinto and is preparing for induced-polarization surveys to further define drill targets. This project stands out as a promising copper porphyry target within the company’s portfolio of projects aimed at developing significant copper-gold resources.
