Highlights
- Encouraging assay results received for four diamond holes and five RC drill holes finalised at the Brumby Ridge Cu-Au Prospect.
- Results consistent with visual sulphides reported earlier.
- The assays indicate a NNW trending Cu-Au mineralised vein system, which is crosscut by several narrow-mineralised fault-controlled breccia zones (MFBZ).
- Geochemical sampling and mapping is underway to delineate further drill targets.
Cooper Metals Limited (ASX: CPM) has received assays for the five RC holes and four diamond holes completed at the Brumby Ridge Cu-Au Prospect in February and March 2024. The results align with the visual sulphides reported in April 2024.

- RC drillhole 24MERC001 - 8m @ 0.24% Cu and 0.01 g/t Au from 148m
- RC drillhole 24MERC002 – intersected gold only, including 1m @ 0.83g/t Au from 162m
- RC drill hole 24MERC005 - 17m @ 0.16 Cu from 196m
