Core Insights - GreenLight Metals Inc. has successfully completed its Phase 1 drilling program at the Bend copper-gold VMS Project in Wisconsin, confirming significant copper-gold mineralization and visual observations suggest further success in remaining holes [2][3][5] Drilling Program Overview - The Phase 1 program consisted of six holes totaling 2,037 meters, targeting the eastern extensions of the known Bend deposit, confirming that mineralization extends eastward and remains open at depth [3][6] - Initial assay results from the first three holes indicate high-grade mineralization, with hole B25-003 returning 12.85 meters at 1.81% Cu, 1.75 g/t Au, 22.7 g/t Ag, and 346.9 g/t Te [3][10] Significant Assay Results - The first three holes returned notable intercepts, including: - B25-003: 12.85m (11.3m true thickness) @ 1.81% Cu, 1.75g/t Au, 22.7g/t Ag, 346.9g/t Te from 257.00m [3][10] - B25-004: 22.24m (17.8m true thickness) of massive to semi-massive sulfide from 276.29m (assays pending) [3][10] - B25-005: 8.79m (7.21m true thickness) of semi-massive to massive sulfide from 285.83m [3][10] - B25-006: 17.11m (11.98m true thickness) of semi-massive to massive sulfide from 328.52m [3][10] Tellurium Analysis - The analytical program includes tellurium, a critical mineral for renewable energy and defense applications, with results for six samples within the B25-003 intercept exceeding the 500 g/t detection limit pending [3][12] Strategic Advantages - The drilling program was executed entirely on private mineral lands with existing permits, allowing for efficient exploration advancement while federal permit applications are pending [3][5] Future Plans - Planning is underway for a Phase 2 winter drill program to follow up on recent successes, with a proposed 5,000 - 6,000 meter drill program to further expand the deposit [21][37]
