Vizsla Copper Extends Deerhorn And Takom Deposits And Intersects Strongest Copper Mineralization To Date At The Megaton Zone

05.12.2023 | 14:00 Uhr | CNW

VANCOUVER, Dec. 5, 2023 - Vizsla Copper Corp. (TSXV: VCU) (OTCQB: VCUFF) (FRANKFURT: 97E0) ("Vizsla Copper" or the "Company") is pleased to report additional assay results from its summer core drilling program at the Woodjam copper-gold project (the "Woodjam Project" or "Woodjam") in central BC (Figure 1). Highlights include significant extensions to the Deerhorn and Takom deposits and the strongest copper mineralization to date at the Megaton zone.

HIGHLIGHTS

Mineralization Extended at the Deerhorn and Takom Deposits.

  • Drill hole DH23-107 (Deerhorn):
    • Intersected 37.5m averaging 0.64% CuEq (0.12% Cu, 0.78 g/t Au)
    • includes a higher-grade sub-interval of 22.5m averaging 0.84% CuEq (0.13% Cu, 1.07 g/t Au)
  • Drill hole DH23-104 (Deerhorn):
    • Intersected 90.7m averaging 0.36% CuEq (0.10% Cu, 0.38 g/t Au)
  • Drill hole TK23-111 (Takom):
    • Intersected 20.0m averaging 0.69% CuEq (0.50% Cu, 0.27 g/t Au)
    • Intersected a second zone of 97.60m averaging 0.20% CuEq (0.15% Cu, 0.08 g/t Au)

Megaton Drilling

  • Drill hole MT23-116 (Megaton):
    • Intersected 110.1m averaging 0.26% copper equivalent (CuEq) (0.20% Cu, 0.01 g/t Au)

Note: Copper equivalent values are based on metal prices of $4.00/lb Cu, $1,800/oz Au, $22/oz Ag and $15/lb Mo.

"I'm very pleased with the results of our first drilling program at Woodjam," commented Craig Parry, Executive Chairman. "Our strategy of acquiring under-appreciated assets in top-tier jurisdictions and adding value through aggressive exploration is progressing nicely. We will continue to pursue this strategy with more exploration at Woodjam and our other highly prospective projects."

"Thanks to our field crews, led by Senior Geologist Ian Borg and Project Geologist Colin Bateman, the summer drilling program at Woodjam has been a resounding success," commented Steve Blower, Vice President of Exploration. "We safely and effectively explored several different target areas. Mineralization at the Deerhorn and Takom deposits was expanded and gaps in the drilling at the large Southeast deposit were successfully filled. However, I'm most excited about the result at the Megaton zone, where drill hole MT23-116 intersected the strongest mineralization there to date and has established a clear vector for further exploration. There are strong indications that Megaton is another porphyry center at Woodjam."

DEERHORN

Drill holes DH23-104 and DH23-107 were completed to evaluate down-dip and up-dip extensions, respectively, on the southernmost section of historical drilling at the Deerhorn Zone. Historical drill hole DH12-37 had previously intersected a long interval of copper and gold mineralization (100.0 m @ 0.97 g/t Au and 0.13 % Cu from 211.0 m) on this section. Drill holes DH23-104 and DH23-107 extended the mineralization in both the down-dip and up-dip directions (Table 1 and Figures 2 and 3) and demonstrate that the system is robust at the south end of the zone and remains open for expansion in this direction. Drill hole DH23-109 was completed as a 100m step-out further south and while it did not intersect significant copper or gold mineralization, the drill hole was strongly altered and is interpreted to have intersected an altered envelope around the plunging zone of mineralization. More drilling is required at the south end of Deerhorn.

TAKOM

Drilling at the Takom deposit successfully extended mineralization on the east side of the deposit with drill hole TK23-111 (Table 1 and Figures 2 and 4). TK23-111 intersected 20m averaging 0.69% CuEq and a second interval of 97.60 m averaging 0.20% CuEq.

MEGATON

Wide spaced, historical drilling at the Megaton zone, located approximately 2km northeast of the large Southeast Deposit has commonly intersected long intervals of low-grade copper mineralization over a large area. The geology at Megaton is similar to that at the Southeast zone, with mineralization hosted by several phases of altered monzonite, including potassium feldspar porphyry, along the northern edge of the Takomkane batholith. New Direct Current Induced Polarization (DCIP) geophysical survey data collected earlier this year indicated greater concentrations of sulphide mineralization may be present north of previous drilling. Drill hole MT23-116, collared 150m north of historical drill hole MT21-07 intersected the strongest mineralization to date at Megaton, 110.1m averaging 0.26% Cueq (Figures 5 and 6). Drill hole MT23-118, completed 180m northeast of MT23-116 intersected 63.3m averaging 0.18% Cueq. Much of the large DCIP anomaly remains undrilled to the north of drill holes MT23-116 and MT23-118, where interpreted structures extend from the Southeast deposit.

Sampling, Chain of Custody, Quality Assurance and Quality Control

All sampling was conducted under the supervision of Vizsla's geologists and the chain of custody from the sampling facility in Horsefly to the sample preparation facility, ALS Laboratories in Kamloops, BC, was continuously monitored.

Core samples were taken as ½ core, from a minimum of 0.3 m to a maximum of 2 m core length to account for lithological or alteration boundaries. Samples were then crushed, pulverised and sample pulps were analysed using industry standard analytical methods including a 4-Acid, ICP-MS multielement package (ALS code ME-MS61) and an ICP-AES method for high-grade copper samples (ALS code ME-OG62). Gold was analysed using a 30 g aliquot by fire assay with an ICP-AES finish (ALS code Au-ICP21).

Certified reference material was inserted every 10th sample. Coarse blank was inserted every 20th sample. For approximately 2.5% of core samples, the remaining ½ core was taken as a field duplicate. For 2.5% of core samples a preparation duplicate is taken after coarse crushing is complete at the laboratory.

In addition to Vizsla's QA/QC program, additional blanks, reference materials and duplicates were inserted by ALS according to their internal procedures. Data verification of the analytical results included a statistical analysis of the standards and blanks that must pass certain parameters for acceptance to ensure accurate and verifiable results.

Repricing of Warrants

The Company intends to reprice and extend the expiry date of a total of 3,072,061 share purchase warrants exercisable at $0.65 per common share expiring on April 14, 2024 (the "Warrants"). The Warrants were issued pursuant to a private placement which closed on April 14, 2022. The Company proposes to reprice the Warrants to $0.35 per share and extend the expiry date by an additional year to April 14, 2025.

All other terms and conditions of the Warrants remain unchanged. The extension of the Warrants is subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.

Generally, but not always, forward-looking information and statements can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects", "is expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates", or "believes" or the negative connotation thereof or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved" or the negative connotation thereof. Forward-looking statements in this news release include, among others, statements relating to: the exploration and development of the Company's projects, including Woodjam; the release of exploration results; and the Company's growth and business strategies.

Forward?looking statements and forward?looking information relating to any future mineral production, liquidity, enhanced value and capital markets profile of the Company, future growth potential for the Company and its business, and future exploration plans are based on management's reasonable assumptions, estimates, expectations, analyses and opinions, which are based on management's experience and perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, and other factors that management believes are relevant and reasonable in the circumstances, but which may prove to be incorrect. Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things, the price of silver, gold, and other metals; no escalation in the severity of public health crises; costs of exploration and development; the estimated costs of development of exploration projects; the Company's ability to operate in a safe and effective manner and its ability to obtain financing on reasonable terms.

These statements reflect the Company's respective current views with respect to future events and are necessarily based upon a number of other assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by management, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties and contingencies.
