Ernest Mast, President and CEO of Doré Copper, commented:
“As part of the feasibility study, Dore Copper is completing a 45,000 meter drilling program in 2022 at its flagship high-grade Corner Bay copper-gold deposit. Results from the first infill holes are confirming the continuity of the copper mineralization. The next part of the program will target the infill and expansion drilling of the highest grade part of the deposit where a number of intercepts returned greater than 8% copper and were announced during the second half of 2021.”
