Sable Samples Up to 1.36% Cu at new "Zorro North" Target within the Zorro Project, San Juan, Argentina
Sable uncovers expansive copper footprint at Zorro North as strategic partnerships de-risk Argentine porphyry portfolio

The most recent news (February 25, 2026) announces the discovery of a new copper-mineralized zone named "Zorro North" within the Zorro Project in San Juan, Argentina. Key highlights include: - Surface chip sampling returned grades up to 1.36% Cu, 12.7 g/t Ag, and 0.13 g/t Au. - The mineralization is hosted in a granitic cupola zone covering over 2 km², with the current exposed footprint measuring 700m x 550m. - Unlike previous targets, this is not vein-controlled but disseminated, suggesting potential for a larger, bulk-tonnage system. - 13 out of 19 samples returned >0.1% Cu, indicating consistent mineralization across the sampled area.
This news is Material - Positive. It represents a significant expansion of the Zorro Project, which was only consolidated in January 2026. - Scale: The 2 km² cupola target is large enough to host a major porphyry system. - Grade: While surface samples are selective, 1.36% Cu is high for a disseminated system, and the consistency of the lower-grade samples (0.1% Cu) supports the "bulk-tonnage" thesis. - Strategic Context: This discovery follows the January 22, 2026, report of high-grade veins (up to 140 g/t Au) at Zorro. The project is rapidly evolving from a grassroots prospect into a multi-target asset with both high-grade and bulk-tonnage potential. - Cost Efficiency: The project is at a low altitude (2,600m) with year-round access, reducing the exploration cost-curve compared to high-Andean projects.
Sable Resources is a junior explorer focused on the San Juan Province of Argentina. - Flagship Project: Historically Don Julio, but following South32's exit in July 2025, the focus has shifted to El Fierro (partnered with Moxico) and the 100%-owned Zorro Project. - Zorro Project: A 5,236-hectare project targeting porphyry and epithermal mineralization. It is located near the Chita Valley project (Minsud/South32).
