Copper Giant Extends Mineralization Below the Conceptual Pit at Mocoa and Confirms a Third Mineralized Corridor

Multi-center porphyry Cu-Mo system advancing toward PEA with validated depth continuity and third corridor

By The Northwire Desk — AI Analysis Jun 22, 2026 · 07:30 LBC · 0.225 Libero Copper & Gold Corporation
Executive Summary
  • The June 22, 2026 release reports drill results from directional daughter holes MD-064 and MD-063 at the Mocoa project in Colombia.
  • MD-064 returned 1,052 metres of continuous mineralization, including 486 metres at 0.57% CuEq, which exceeds the current Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) average of 0.51% CuEq.
  • MD-063 extended mineralization 303 metres below the current conceptual pit through previously modeled waste, returning 0.41% CuEq.
  • MD-064 confirmed a third mineralized breccia corridor, reinforcing the interpretation of Mocoa as a large, multi-phase porphyry system.
  • The results are explicitly framed as validating the geological model ahead of the upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).
Material Impact
  • The intercepts directly support resource growth and pit-design optimization by proving continuity below the current economic shell.
  • Confirming a third mineralized corridor increases the potential scale of the deposit, which could improve the PEA's net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) if metallurgical and cost assumptions hold.
  • The news does not introduce a new financing, M&A, or production milestone. It is an incremental step in a planned exploration program designed to feed the PEA.
  • No immediate change to cash burn or capital requirements is disclosed, though successful PEA results may trigger a future capital raise.

Company Overview
  • Copper Giant Resources Corp. is an exploration-stage company focused on the Mocoa copper-molybdenum porphyry project in Putumayo, Colombia.
  • The project hosts an inferred resource of 1.12 billion tonnes at 0.51% CuEq, containing 12.7 billion pounds of copper-equivalent (7.7 Blbs Cu, 1.0 Blb Mo).
  • The system is interpreted as a multi-center porphyry with three drill-tested breccia corridors, remaining open laterally and at depth.
  • The company is currently advancing toward a PEA, supported by a technical team including SLR Consulting, APEX Geoscience, and SGS Canada.
  • Social license has been secured through a completed prior consultation with the Inga Condagua Indigenous Nation, a notable de-risking milestone for Colombian exploration.
