DLP Resources Confirms Extension of Copper, Silver and Molybdenum Mineralization to NE of Aurora Drilling

08.02.2024  |  Newsfile
With Values of up to 2.25% Cu and 195g/t Ag and 182ppm Mo in Rock Samples

Cranbrook, February 8, 2024 - DLP Resources Inc. (TSXV: DLP) (OTCQB: DLPRF) ("DLP" or the "Company") announces receipt of complete rock sampling results for the area immediately NE of the current drilling at the Aurora porphyry copper-molybdenum project in southern Peru (Figure 1).

Results for 40 rock samples taken to the NE of the DLP drilling identified an area of anomalous Cu, Mo and Ag extending over approximately 700m x 500m (See Figures 2, 3 and 4). This area also overlies a similar magnetic anomaly that underlies the main porphyry area.

Highlights

  1. Rock chip sample 1062 returned 2.25% Cu and 195g/t Ag. This sample was taken from a moderately silicified and brecciated hornfels with mineralization consisting of pyrite-chalcopyrite-covellite-chalcocite and copper oxides. Sampling was done over a surface area of 10m x 10m.

  2. Further rock chip samples with highly anomalous Cu, Ag and/or Mo results included:

    • Sample 1084 - 1.5150% Cu, 5.53g/t Ag and 1.01ppm Mo

    • Sample 1060 - 0.2680% Cu, 2.09g/t Ag and 74.3ppm Mo

    • Sample 1065 - 0.0527% Cu, 2.28g/t Ag and 137ppm Mo

    • Sample 1067 - 0.0095% Cu, 0.79g/t Ag and 53.1ppm Mo

    • Sample 1074 - 0.3440% Cu, 5.56g/t Ag and 1.78ppm Mo

    • Sample 1075 - 0.1300% Cu, 0.13g/t Ag and 4.86ppm Mo

    • Sample 1078 - 0.1880% Cu, 4.77g/t Ag and 5.59ppm Mo

    • Sample 1086 - 0.1205% Cu, 4.61g/t Ag and 1.23ppm Mo

    • Sample 1099 - 0.0077% Cu, 0.29g/t Ag and 182ppm Mo

See Table 1 for the full set of results for the rock chip samples.

Mr. Gendall, President and CEO, commented: "We are very encouraged with the results from rock sampling to the NE of the current drilling of 2023. Anomalous Cu, Mo and Ag in rocks has identified an extension of at least 700m x 500m to the NE and SE which we will expand drilling into in 2024."

Quality Control and Quality Assurance

DLP Resources Peru S.A.C, a subsidiary of DLP Resources Inc., supervises sampling and carries out surface sampling and mapping of outcrop at the Aurora project. Rock chip sampling was done within a maximum area of 25m x 25m and descriptions were carried out by a geologist. Samples are bagged and sealed on site before transportation to the ALS Peru S.A.C. sample preparation facility in Arequipa by Company vehicles and staff. Rocks are crushed with 70% passing <2mm. Sample is split with riffle splitter and 250g pulverized to 85% less than 75um. Prepared samples are sent to Lima by ALS Peru S.A.C. for analysis. ALS Peru S.A.C. is an independent laboratory. Samples are analyzed for 51 elements using aqua regia digestion and analyzed by ICP-MS + ICPAES analysis (ME-MS41). Overlimit samples for copper and silver were re-analysed by four-acid digestion and ICP-AES (ME-OG62). ALS meets all requirements of International Standards ISO/IEC 17025:2005 and ISO 9001:2015 for analytical procedures.

DLP Resources independently monitors quality control and quality assurance ("QA/QC") through a program that includes the insertion of blind certified reference materials (standards), blanks and pulp duplicate samples.

Aurora Project

Aurora Project is an advanced stage porphyry copper-molybdenum exploration project in the Province of Calca, SE Peru (Figure 1). The Aurora Project was previously permitted for drilling in 2015 but was never executed. Thirteen historical drillholes, drilled in 2001 and 2005 totaling 3,900m were drilled over an area of approximately 1000m by 800m, cut significant intervals of copper and molybdenum mineralization. From logging of the only three remaining holes DDA-01, DDA-3A and DDA-3 and data now available, it appears that only three of the thirteen holes tested the enriched copper zone and only one hole drilled deep enough to test the primary copper and molybdenum zone (see DLP Resources Inc. news release of May 18, 2021).

Salient historic drillhole data of the Aurora Project are:

  • 190m @ 0.57% Cu, 0.008% Mo in DDA-1 with a high-grade intercept of 20m @ 1.01% Cu related to a supergene enrichment zone of secondary chalcocite;

  • 142m @ 0.5% Cu, 0.004% Mo in DDA-3;

  • 71.7m @ 0.7% Cu, 0.007% Mo in DDA-3A (see historical Focus Ventures Ltd. news release July 11, 2012); and

  • One of the historical holes ABC-6 drilled on the edge of the system intersected 78m @ 0.45% Cu and 0.107% Mo (Figure 2).

A review of the historical drilling indicates that the majority of the thirteen holes were drilled in the leached and partially leached zones of the porphyry system. Ten of the thirteen holes never fully tested the oxide and secondary enrichment zone and/or the primary copper zone at depth encountered in DDA-01. Copper-molybdenum mineralization is hosted by quartz-feldspar porphyries intruded into slates-hornfels and pelitic sandstones belonging to the Ordovician (439 - 463 ma) Sandia Formation.
