Emerita Extends El Cura Deposit 90 Meters Westward, Intersecting 4.1 Meters Grading 3.9% copper, 3.6% lead 8.5% Zinc, 4.08 g/t gold and 96.4 g/t silver

Core Insights - Emerita Resources Corp. has reported ongoing diamond drilling results that significantly expand the El Cura deposit, with the latest drill hole (EC080) extending mineralization by at least 90 meters to the west [1][10] - The company has approved an additional 12,000 meters of drilling to continue the expansion at El Cura, which is part of the wholly-owned Iberian Belt West project [1][13] Drilling Results - Recent highlights from the drilling campaign at El Cura include high-grade intercepts, such as drill hole EC080 which intercepted 4.1 meters grading 3.9% copper, 3.6% lead, 8.5% zinc, 4.08 g/t gold, and 96.39 g/t silver [7][10] - Other notable drill results include EC069 with 3.8 meters grading 1.8% copper, 2.3% lead, 6.2% zinc, 3.60 g/t gold, and 70.24 g/t silver, and EC075 with 3.5 meters grading 0.7% copper, 0.4% lead, 0.7% zinc, 0.67 g/t gold, and 25.09 g/t silver [7][10] Project Overview - The El Cura deposit is part of the Iberian Belt West project, which includes three identified Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide (VMS) deposits: La Romanera, El Cura, and La Infanta [1][4] - The drilling is currently targeting the upper, lower, and western extents of the deposit, with all reported holes returning mineralized intercepts, except for one that encountered faulting [9][10] Historical Context - Historical workings at El Cura were limited, with only modest production recorded in 1882, indicating that the deposit remains largely undeveloped and has significant potential for further exploration [11][13] - The company interprets El Cura as an intact deposit, with no surface expression of mineralization in the area currently being drilled, suggesting excellent potential for expansion [11][13] Future Plans - Given the consistent high-grade results and the ongoing expansion of the deposit, Emerita has decided to extend the El Cura drill program by an additional 12,000 meters to further explore the western and deeper portions of the system [13][10]
