Coyote Copper Mines Receives Its Phase 1 Drill Permits for Its Wholly Owned Copper Springs Project and Provides Notice of Acceleration of Certain Warrants
Coyote secured drill permits for its Arizona copper project and accelerated warrants to October 15.
Coyote Copper Mines Inc. has secured full Phase 1 drill permits for its wholly owned Copper Springs Project in Arizona, authorizing 37 drill locations within a three-year window to complete drilling and reclamation. The company also staked 111 new claims, expanding the project footprint from 63.33 km² to 72.36 km².
Exploration activities are advancing with Phase 1 of a 2D Induced Polarization (IP) survey currently underway. New geophysical programs, including CSEM-MT and SIP, are scheduled to begin in late September. Geological context highlights a 3 km × 3 km × 1.4 km subsurface anomaly interpreted as a large intrusive-hydrothermal center consistent with a Porphyry Copper System. Surface sampling has returned copper values up to 1,000 ppm.
The Board approved the acceleration of certain outstanding warrants, requiring holders to exercise by October 15, 2026, or face expiration. Total potential proceeds from the accelerated warrants (Series 1, 2, and 3) amount to $3,143,386.58 if fully exercised.
Coyote Copper Mines Inc. (CCMM) has received Phase 1 drill permits, a routine and expected milestone for an advanced exploration company. This development validates prior geophysical and geochemical work, though it does not constitute a discovery or resource estimate.
The company also executed a warrant acceleration, a standard corporate action designed to force capital raises or reduce outstanding dilution. This move aligns with Coyote Copper Mines Inc.’s historical financing strategy and was not unexpected given the recent permit milestone.
While the news is positive and incremental, confirming that the company is on track to test its porphyry targets, it introduces no material change to valuation, risk profile, or operational timeline.
Coyote Copper Mines Inc. (formerly First and Goal Capital Corp.) completed a reverse takeover of Copper Bullet Mines Inc. in April 2026. The company’s flagship asset is the Copper Springs Project, located in Arizona's Copper Triangle adjacent to major producers such as Resolution Copper, a joint venture between BHP and Rio Tinto. The project is in an advanced exploration stage, characterized by historic drilling, strong geochemical anomalies, and geophysical "donut" targets indicative of porphyry systems. Surface mineralization at the site reduces drilling costs compared to deeper regional deposits.
