A large exploration target immediately adjacent to the Berg deposit has been identified and termed the SW Berg Target.

Key Points: 
  • A large exploration target immediately adjacent to the Berg deposit has been identified and termed the SW Berg Target.
  • A large exploration target immediately adjacent to the Berg deposit has been identified and is termed the SW Berg Target.
  • The East Sibola copper in soil target has been significantly expanded during 2023 work and is a second high priority untested exploration target.
  • Figure 2 shows a compilation map over the Berg - SW Berg Target area with a 2007 induced polarization geophysical survey that partially covers the SW Berg Target.

The drill results include an intercept of 162.5 metres grading 0.33% copper and 1.64 g/t silver in hole CW-23-3B.

Key Points: 
  • The drill results include an intercept of 162.5 metres grading 0.33% copper and 1.64 g/t silver in hole CW-23-3B.
  • The first four holes CW-23-01, CW-23-02, CW-23-03B, and CW-23-04 tested Creek Zone West located about 450 metres west of Creek Zone.
  • The fifth hole, CW-23-05, was drilled about 75 metres west of the Creek Zone drill hole WC2016-02 and intersected Whiting Creek intrusive for the entire length of the hole.
  • While historic drill holes in the Creek Zone intersected copper and molybdenum within the Whiting Creek Stock, intercepts from 2023 drilling confirm that the surrounding altered volcanics can host significant copper, molybdenum and silver mineralization.

The drill results include an intercept of 52.6 metres grading 0.45% copper and 1.29 g/t silver starting from the top of bedrock at a depth of 67.4 metres.

Key Points: 
  • The drill results include an intercept of 52.6 metres grading 0.45% copper and 1.29 g/t silver starting from the top of bedrock at a depth of 67.4 metres.
  • Numerous drill targets were identified and in July and August of 2023, Imperial completed 2,031 metres of diamond drilling on the Whiting Creek prospect.
  • This year’s drilling targeted an underexplored area called Creek Zone West located 450 metres west of Creek Zone drill hole WC2016-02, which intersected 222.5 metres at 0.309% copper, 0.017% molybdenum and 1.18 g/t silver in 2016.
  • The hole intersected 316.8 metres grading 0.23% copper, 0.008% molybdenum and 0.89 g/t silver from 67.4 metres, including 52.6 metres grading 0.45% copper 0.006% molybdenum and 1.29 g/t silver starting from the top of bedrock at a depth of 67.4 metres to 120 metres and 37.5 metres of 0.32% copper, 0.005% molybdenum and 1.72 g/t silver from 320.0 metres to 357.5 metres.
