- Drill hole A24-019A intersected significant copper mineralization, including 0.40% Cu over 59.70m
- AMC Consultants engaged to complete preliminary NI43-101 resource estimate by March 2025
- Expansion of copper-silver mineralization in the northeast and east of Aurora project
- Drill hole A24-019A encountered a fault zone, resulting in early termination at 267.45m
Cranbrook, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 9, 2024) - DLP Resources Inc. (TSXV: DLP) (OTCQB: DLPRF) ("DLP" or the "Company") announces receipt of complete drill results for drillhole A24-019A on the Aurora porphyry copper-molybdenum-silver project in southern Peru. (Figure 1).
Results for the first 18 drillholes, were last released between January 04 and September 26, 2024 (see DLP Resources Inc., news release of January 04, 2024, June 25, 2024, August 15, 2024, and September 26, 2024, for results for the previous eighteen drillholes).
Highlights
- Drillhole A24-019A was drilled off the same drill platform as A24-017 with the aim of expanding the copper mineralization in the northeast. This drillhole intersected copper mineralization from 34.30m extending to 168m in mineralized hornfels. This hole was a redrill of A20-019 which was stopped in a near surface fault at 66.88m. Unfortunately, A24-019A also entered the fault zone, which resulted in the hole being stopped at 267.45m. Results were as follows:
0.21% Cu over 133.70m from 34.30m to 168.00m.0.40% Cu over 59.70m from 34.30m to 94.00m.
The complete set of results for A24-019A are summarized in Table 1 below.
- DLP has engaged AMC Consultants to initiate and complete the preliminary NI43-101 compliant resource estimation on Aurora. AMC are renowned international mining consultants whose clients include the world's leading mining and exploration companies, corporate advisors, financial institutions, and insurance companies.
Mr. Gendall, President and CEO commented: "We are excited with the near surface copper-silver mineralization in the northeast and east of Aurora. Four holes drilled in the east and northeast in 2024, have all intersected good near surface copper-silver mineralization expanding the copper-silver shell over the project area. In addition to continued drilling, to expand both copper-silver and molybdenum mineralization at Aurora, we have also engaged AMC Consultants to initiate the preliminary resource estimation on Aurora. It is expected that AMC will have the preliminary resource estimate completed by March 2025."

Drill hole A24-019A (Figures 2 and 3) commenced on August 22, 2024 at an inclination of -70 degrees on an azimuth of 200 degrees and ended on September 02, at 267.45m. Summary geology is as follows:
- 0-34.30m: No core recovered - Overburden
- 34.30 - 94.00m: Mineralized hornfels with copper enrichment.
- 94.00m - 267.45m: Weakly mineralized hornfels.

Quality Control and Quality Assurance
DLP Resources Peru S.A.C, a subsidiary of DLP Resources Inc., supervises drilling and carries out sampling of HTW, NTW and BTW core. Logging and sampling are completed at a secured Company facility situated on the project site. Sample intervals are nominally 1m to 3m in length. Drill core is cut in half using a rotary diamond blade saw and samples are sealed on site before transportation to the ALS Peru S.A.C. sample preparation facility in Arequipa by Company vehicles and staff. Prepared samples are sent to Lima by ALS Peru S.A.C. for analysis. ALS Peru S.A.C. is an independent laboratory. Samples are analyzed for 48 elements using a four-acid digestion and ICP-MS analysis (ME-MS61). In addition, sequential copper analyses are done where secondary copper mineralization is observed and reports, soluble copper using sulphuric acid leach, soluble copper in cyanide leach, residual copper and total copper. ALS meets all requirements of International Standards ISO/IEC 17025:2005 and ISO 9001:2015 for analytical procedures.
DLP Resources independently monitors quality control and quality assurance ("QA/QC") through a program that includes the insertion of blind certified reference materials (standards), blanks and pulp duplicate samples. The company is not aware of any drilling, sampling, recovery or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data for intervals reported in A24-019A from 34.30m to 168m.
Aurora Project
Aurora Project is an advanced stage porphyry copper-molybdenum exploration project in the Province of Calca, SE Peru (Figure 1). The Aurora Project was previously permitted for drilling in 2015 but was never executed. Thirteen historical drillholes, drilled in 2001 and 2005 totaling 3,900m were drilled over an area of approximately 1000m by 800m, cut significant intervals of copper and molybdenum mineralization. From logging of the only three remaining holes DDA-01, DDA-3A and DDA-3 and data now available, it appears that only three of the thirteen holes tested the enriched copper zone and only one hole drilled deep enough to test the primary copper and molybdenum zone (see DLP Resources Inc. news release of May 18, 2021).
Salient historic drillhole data of the Aurora Project are:
190m @
0.57% Cu,0.008% Mo in DDA-1 with a high-grade intercept of 20m @1.01% Cu related to a supergene enrichment zone of secondary chalcocite;142m @
0.5% Cu,0.004% Mo in DDA-3;71.7m @
0.7% Cu,0.007% Mo in DDA-3A (see historical Focus Ventures Ltd. news release July 11, 2012); andOne of the historical holes ABC-6 drilled on the edge of the system intersected 78m @
0.45% Cu and0.107% Mo (Figure 2).
A review of the historical drilling indicates that the majority of the thirteen holes were drilled in the leached and partially leached zones of the porphyry system. Ten of the thirteen holes never fully tested the oxide and secondary enrichment zone and/or the primary copper zone at depth encountered in DDA-01. Copper-molybdenum mineralization is hosted by quartz-feldspar porphyries intruded into slates-hornfels and pelitic sandstones belonging to the Ordovician (439 - 463 ma) Sandia Formation.
