C3 Metals (CCCM) will begin a drilling program at the company’s Bellas Gate Copper-Gold Porphyry Project this weekend.

The Toronto-based exploration company owns a 100-percent interest in the project, located in Jamaica.

Drilling will test multiple porphyry copper targets identified within the Crawl River Fault zone.

To date, the company has identified twelve porphyry systems and multiple epithermal occurrences on the project.

The first drill target is expected to be the Epidote Ridge, which has been linked to porphyry copper-gold prospects.

The drill rig will then test other high potential porphyry prospects, followed by epithermal copper-gold-silver targets.

“On March 24th, 2022 we announced our 2022 exploration drilling program in Jamaica. We are excited to commence drilling on a number of untested copper-gold porphyry systems and historic mine workings with impressive copper mineralization but limited multi-discipline exploration. This initial program will test multiple high potential prospects starting at Epidote Ridge, one of our most compelling targets. On completion of the first hole, the drill rig will move to test additional porphyry and epithermal targets along Porphyry Alley and the parallel spatially associated Epithermal Copper-Gold Corridor,” said President and CEO Kevin Tomlinson.

C3 Metals is up 10 percent, trading at $0.055 at 10:25 am ET.
