Hot Chili (ASX:HCH) expands Costa Fuego coastal copper hub

Hot Chili is expanding its Costa Fuego coastal copper hub in Chile with the acquisition of two historical copper mine areas, Marsellesa and Cordillera, located near the Costa Fuego Copper-Gold Project.

Both areas, located approximately 10km southwest of the planned central processing hub, have never been drill-tested and offer significant exploration potential.

Marsellesa, measuring 400m by 200m, exhibits extensive shallow copper mineralisation, while Cordillera displays outcropping porphyry copper mineralisation with well-developed veining.

First-pass reverse circulation drilling is scheduled to start soon.
