Solis Minerals Ltd (ASX:SLM) Confirms Copper Porphyry Mineralisation at Cinto Project
Confirmed Copper Mineralisation
Solis Minerals Limited (ASX:SLM) has confirmed extensive copper porphyry mineralisation at its Cinto Project in Peru. Highlights include 0.88% Cu over 23.4m in Channel 1 and 0.52% Cu over 16.83m in Channel 6.
Geological Significance
The Cinto Project is located 15km southeast of Peru’s major Toquepala Copper Mine, one of the country’s largest copper producers. Geological similarities between Cinto and Toquepala suggest significant potential for scale.
Future Exploration Plans
Solis is planning an Induced-Polarisation (IP) survey based on strong geochemical correlations. Drill target definition and permitting processes have been initiated, with drilling expected in the second half of 2025. Additionally, drilling at Chancho al Palo and Ilo Este is anticipated later this quarter, pending permits.
Executive Comments
Executive Director Mike Parker commented, “The Cinto Project continues to deliver excellent results and we have considerably expanded our porphyry copper mineralisation footprint. Equally exciting is that we are observing styles of copper mineralisation that resemble the main mineralisation styles of the massive Toquepala mine.”
