White Cliff Minerals (ASX:WCN) has reported encouraging results from its deep drilling program at the Danvers Copper deposit, part of the Rae Copper Project in Nunavut, Canada.
Drillholes DAN25020 and DAN25021, spaced approximately 160m apart, targeted the depth potential of the deposit, returning multiple high-grade copper zones that extend mineralisation well beyond previous limits.
Highlights include 64m at 0.89% Cu in DAN25020, with higher-grade intervals of 9.14m at 2.65% Cu and 11.8 g/t Ag from 178.31m, confirming copper mineralisation down to 188m and still open at depth.
Near-surface, previously untested zones were also identified, coinciding with geophysical anomalies.
DAN25021 further confirmed vertical expansion, intersecting 16.76m at 1.28% Cu from 185.93m, approximately 60m below prior drilling.
Managing Director Troy Whittaker described the results as indicative of a significantly larger deposit than previously understood, highlighting the combination of depth, grade, and scale as a key driver for growth.
The Danvers Project continues to show strong potential for further high-grade, high-tonnage copper-silver mineralisation.
At the time of reporting, White Cliff Minerals' share price was $0.019.
