Super Copper completes phase 1 work at Cordillera Cobre

Executive Summary

• Super Copper Corp. has completed its Phase 1 exploration program at its flagship Cordillera Cobre project in Chile's Atacama region.
• The program focused on validating historical data, generating new geological insights, and identifying drill targets for future phases.
• Key activities included relogging and sampling historical drill core, collecting surface/underground rock samples, and conducting ground geophysical surveys (magnetometry and induced polarization).

Key Details

• Project Location: Cordillera Cobre project, Atacama copper belt, Chile, approximately 40 km north of Copiapo.
• Program Scope: The 2025 Phase 1 campaign was the company's most comprehensive field program to date, aimed at tightening the geological model and designing drill targets.
• Drill Core Verification:
  • Reviewed, relogged, and sampled historical diamond drill holes from 2008 at the El Alto target.
  • Total of 1,500 metres of historical drilling reviewed.
  • Approximately 354 metres (approx. 25%) of core sampled under rigorous QA/QC protocols.
• Sampling:
  • Collected a total of 102 rock samples from outcrops, trenches, and historical mine workings.
  • Samples collected across three strategic zones: El Alto, Calcite Hill, and the northern corridor.
• Geophysical Surveys:
  • Ground Magnetometry: Completed over more than 800 hectares covering Calcite Hill and El Alto to define structural trends.
  • Induced Polarization (IP): Totalled 10 line kilometres (five lines each over Calcite Hill and El Alto, spaced ~200 metres apart) to map disseminated sulphide mineralization and deeper conductive targets.
• Laboratory Analysis: All core and rock samples submitted to ALS Laboratories in Chile for geochemical analysis.
• Data Status: Geophysical data sets are currently being processed and interpreted.
• Next Steps:
  • Anticipated announcement of geochemical and geophysical interpretations in the coming weeks.
  • Planned update outlining priority drill targets and fieldwork for early 2026.

Notable Quotes

• Zachary Dolesky, CEO: "We're extremely encouraged by what we've seen on the ground at Cordillera. This program was about tightening the geological model, verifying historical data, and adding modern layers of insight through geophysics and systematic sampling. Cordillera continues to demonstrate all the hallmarks of a copper system with scale, alteration, structure and proximity to infrastructure. The groundwork we've completed sets the stage for an exciting next phase as we move toward defining our first drill targets."
