Core Viewpoint - Copper Fox Metals Inc. has announced the results of geophysical surveys conducted on the Sombrero Butte project, indicating significant potential for a porphyry copper system based on chargeability and resistivity data [1][2][3]. Geophysical Survey Results - The geophysical program identified a large north-northwest trending body of anomalous chargeability extending from the surface to depths exceeding 800 meters, correlating with alteration zones in the Glory Hole volcanics [2][4]. - Chargeability values ranged from nil to over 80 mrad (38 mV/V), with resistivity values from 30 ohm-m to over 10,000 ohm-m, indicating a substantial area of interest [4][10]. - At 200 meters below the surface, the chargeability anomaly measures approximately 3,200 meters long by 1,300 meters wide, and at 450 meters, it measures about 1,900 meters long by 1,100 meters wide [6]. Interpretation of Data - The chargeability anomaly is interpreted to represent potential large bodies of sulfide mineralization at depth, supporting the hypothesis of a porphyry copper system [2][3]. - The MT resistivity data suggests that the chargeability anomaly continues below 800 meters, indicating further exploration potential [8][10]. Survey Methodology - The 3D SWATH DCIP & MT survey covered an area of approximately 3,200 meters by 2,400 meters, employing a Pole-Dipole-Dipole array configuration [13]. - The survey utilized both 2D and 3D modeling techniques to produce detailed depth sections of resistivity and chargeability [13]. Company Overview - Copper Fox is a Canadian resource company focused on copper exploration and development, with significant projects in Arizona and British Columbia [15].
