GeoNovus and FQM (Akubra Inc) Begin Ground Geophysical Program at Red Hills Porphyry Copper Project

31.10.2013  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired - Oct 31, 2013) - GeoNovus Minerals Corp. (TSX VENTURE:GNM) ("GeoNovus" or "the Company") is pleased to announce the start up of a ground geophysical program at the Red Hills porphyry copper project in Arizona by FQM (Akubra Inc)(a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Quantum Minerals Ltd. (TSX:FM)). SJ Geophysics (Delta, BC) has been engaged to conduct magnetic and induced polarization (IP) surveys along two lines, each roughly 6,000m in length and oriented roughly east-west and northwest-southeast over an area of interest on the western portion of the project area. The western area of interest was previously identified through drilling conducted in late 2012 and early 2013 (see news release, August 28, 2013). A gravity survey conducted in early 2013 has been used to locate target areas under shallower post-mineral cover (see news release, January 25, 2013).


About the Red Hills Porphyry Copper Project

The Red Hills project includes over 3,700 hectares (9,150 acres) of state mineral leases and federal unpatented mining claims, and is located within a broad belt of porphyry-copper mines and deposits that include Globe-Miami, Ray, Florence-Poston Butte, and Resolution. Drilling at Red Hills in late 2012 confirmed that a fault-displaced portion of a porphyry system is present under sedimentary cover with 0.18% Cu over 104.2 meters, including two separate intercepts of 0.39% Cu over 9.75 meters and 0.42% Cu over 11.8 meters, respectively (see news release, September 15, 2012). The results also suggested that the western portion of the property should undergo further exploration, and a gravity survey was conducted to better define those areas (see news release, January 25, 2013). The combined magnetic and pole-dipole IP survey that is now underway is designed to better refine target areas for drilling that, pending positive results, will be slated for drilling in late 2013 or early 2014.

GeoNovus has an option agreement with FQM (Akubra Inc)(a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Quantum Minerals Ltd. (TSX:FM)) to explore the Red Hills porphyry copper project, with GeoNovus holding its interest under a mining lease agreement with Eurasian Minerals Inc., through its wholly-owned subsidiary Bronco Creek Exploration, Inc. ('Bronco Creek'). Eurasian Minerals (through Bronco Creek) has acted as manager for the work programs at Red Hills.
