Algo Grande Launches Advanced Geophysical and Geochemical Programs Ahead of Phase II Drilling in Q2 2026

Executive Summary

• Algo Grande Copper Corp. has commenced an integrated advanced surface and geophysical program (LiDAR, drone‑magnetic, systematic soil sampling) at its 100% owned Adelita Project in Sonora, Mexico to refine drill targets ahead of a Phase II drilling campaign slated for Q2 2026.
• The company entered multiple investor‑relations and consulting agreements (Rayleigh Capital, DCWL Media Ventures, Epstein Research, Departures Capital, Robert Sinn) totaling approximately US$79,500 in fees and the grant of 200,000 stock options, all subject to TSXV approval.

Key Details

• Exploration Program Initiation
• High‑resolution airborne LiDAR survey covering the entire 5,895‑ha Adelita property – aims to define structural corridors, fault systems, subtle alteration signatures, and detect historic workings.
• Drone‑based magnetic survey over a >6 km prospective corridor to map intrusive contacts, magnetite‑rich skarn bodies, and delineate structural controls linked to Cu‑Au‑Ag mineralization.

• Systematic soil geochemical grid program targeting an area with recent mineralization (granodiorite boulder found at ~1 m depth) to prioritize trenching and future drilling.

• Phase II Drilling Outlook

• Data from LiDAR, drone magnetics, and soil sampling will be integrated into the company’s 3‑D geological model and machine‑learning targeting workflow to generate high‑confidence drill targets for the Q2 2026 Phase II program.
