Hercules Metals Corp. is pleased to announce drill hole HER-24-21 intersected 354m of 0.47% CuEq, including 171m of 0.64% CuEq, and a higher grade 44m interval of 0.89% CuEq at its Hercules Property in western Idaho . The hole was designed to test below 2023 drill hole 23-14, interpreted to be drilled along the periphery of the system. The reverse circulation hole encountered strongly mineralized volcanic wall rock over [...]
Hercules Metals Corp. is pleased to announce new step-out drilling results from its Hercules Property in western Idaho . Drill hole HER-24-20, a 330m step-out, intersected 300m of 0.70% CuEq, beginning at a true depth of 70 meters below surface - the shallowest that porphyry mineralization has been drilled on the Property. Figure 2 illustrates the thinning cover sequence, which fully pinches out to the east, and exposes a [...]
Hercules Metals Corp. is pleased to announce results from its first phase of initial metallurgical testing at the Hercules Project in western Idaho . Metallurgical testing was conducted on four composite samples, each weighing over 50 kilograms, including samples of oxide and sulfide silver from the near surface epithermal system, as well as copper mineralization from the underlying porphyry system. Conventional flotation [...]
Hercules Metals Corp. is pleased to announce new drill intercepts from its Hercules Property in western Idaho . HER-24-12 has intersected 338m of 0.47% Cu, with the final 154m ending in 0.51% Cu and 104 ppm Mo, marking the first recorded increase in mineralization at depth on the Property. Final assay results reveal the 315m step-out from HER-24-08 ended in strong mineralization, with alteration increasing from phyllic to [...]
Hercules Metals Corp. is pleased to provide an update on recent drilling as further assay results remain pending at the Leviathan porphyry copper system in western Idaho . RC drilling has advanced rapidly with three holes completed and a fourth in progress, including HER-24-17 being completed to 975m. Three new holes stepped to the southeast, HER-24-19 through -21, all intersected early biotite alteration with [...]
Hercules Metals Corp. is pleased to announce multiple broad copper intercepts from its Phase III drilling program on the newly discovered Leviathan porphyry copper system in western Idaho . Highlights 140-meter step-out delivers similar hypogene enrichment to discovery hole HER-23-05, including 55 m of 1.5% Cu, within a broader intercept of 480 meters of 0.47% Cu, 82 ppm Mo, representing the longest intercept reported to [...]
Hercules Metals Corp. is pleased to announce that it has selected Legacy Drilling, LLC, of Reno, Nevada to carry out reverse circulation drilling at the Hercules Property in western Idaho to increase productivity heading into the fall.
