Intrepid Metals Reports Positive Gold Results from Mattie Gold Target and Provides Corral Copper Drilling Update
Intrepid’s Mattie Target sampling at the Corral Copper Project reveals high-grade gold mineralisation, expanding the project’s known gold footprint.
Intrepid Metals Corp. (INTR) has reported positive rock sampling results from the Mattie Gold Target on its Corral Copper Project in Arizona, highlighting high-grade intercepts of 21.0 g/t Au and 195 g/t Ag. The Mattie target represents a distinct gold-focused mineralization style, separate from the established carbonate replacement deposit (CRD) and porphyry copper targets at Corral. Soil sampling results for the Mattie area are pending, and mapping has identified four sub-areas for future evaluation.
The company completed 1,725.17 meters of drilling across four holes at the Holliday Zone and has relocated the drill rig to the Ringo Zone. Additionally, Intrepid Metals has retained Oak Hill Financial Inc. as a new investor relations advisor on a monthly fee of $12,000 for a six-month term.
The Mattie gold results add a new precious metals dimension to the district-scale copper project, though they do not materially alter the core copper-gold thesis or the immediate drilling schedule.
The company also announced the retention of an investor relations advisor, a standard corporate governance step that does not impact operational or financial metrics. The update confirms the execution of the planned drilling program, validating management's timeline while offering no new surprises or paradigm shifts in the geological model.
Intrepid Metals Corp. (INTR) is a pre-revenue exploration company focused on copper, gold, and silver in Arizona, a Tier 1 mining jurisdiction. Its flagship Corral Copper Project is a district-scale property covering approximately 42 square kilometers, located near the historical Bisbee mining camp. The project hosts multiple styles of mineralization, including high-grade carbonate replacement deposits (CRD), porphyry copper systems, and newly identified epithermal gold targets. Historical drilling exceeds 50,000 meters, with recent programs confirming broad zones of copper-gold-silver mineralization and identifying new porphyry vectors. The company also holds early-stage exploration properties at Tombstone South and Mesa Well, expanding its district footprint.
