Phil Carroll and Kevin Hornsby Welcome Charles Bray and Simon Rollason from Aterian after the company reported positive findings from recent sampling on its Azrar Project in Morocco, now covering 99.3 km2 following new license awards. Key highlights include significant results like 4.01% copper (Cu) and 26.9 g/t silver (Ag) from sedimentary-hosted copper targets. Continued copper mineralization has been identified in Adoudouian sediments, along with mineralized quartz veins and breccia zones on the new licenses, some of which contain gold (Au) as a by-product. The project is located in a highly prospective region for sedimentary-hosted copper in central Morocco, with historical workings mapped. Azrar lies near good infrastructure, 45 km east of Managem’s Tizert Copper-Silver development project and 30 km north of Aterian’s Tata sedimentary-hosted copper project. Aterian holds 17 promising projects in Morocco, totaling 897 km2, reflecting the potential for value creation in the region.
