Welcome to our dedicated page for Hot Chili news (Ticker: HHLKF), a resource for investors and traders seeking the latest updates and insights on Hot Chili stock.
Hot Chili Limited reports on copper-gold exploration and development activity centered on its Costa Fuego project in Chile's coastal Atacama region. Recurring updates focus on the La Verde copper-gold porphyry discovery, including diamond and reverse-circulation drilling, assay results, mineralised zone extensions, and the relationship of La Verde to the planned Costa Fuego processing hub.
Company news also includes quarterly reports, capital-raising activity, feasibility and environmental study references, and commodity-market context for copper and gold. Technical disclosures in the company's releases commonly reference copper-equivalent grades, JORC Code reporting, and National Instrument 43-101 standards for mineral-project disclosure.
Hot Chili (OTCQX: HHLKF) reports new La Verde Cu-Au drilling that expands its higher-grade core and near-surface continuity. Key assay highlights include 86.6 m @ 0.45% CuEq from 4.4 m and 163.9 m @ 0.43% CuEq from 185.2 m. Visual 180 m chalcopyrite zone in DKD049 and three wide near-surface RC intersections (DKP052–54) support starter-pit potential. Assays pending for 14 holes; DKD049 expected late May 2026 and DKP052–54 in June 2026. Third drill rig expected to start soon.
Hot Chili (OTC:HHLKF) reported a A$40.0 million private placement and A$35.2 million cash at 31 March 2026 to accelerate development of the Costa Fuego Cu-Au project in Chile.
Key operational highlights: appointment of Ausenco for the feasibility study; delivery of a maiden La Verde resource, EIA submission, and integration of La Verde into an expanded mine plan targeted this year. Drill results at La Verde include DKD039: 725 m @ 0.42% CuEq from 18 m, and multiple near-surface intersections defining a potential higher-grade starter pit.
Hot Chili (OTCQX: HHLKF) reported a standout La Verde diamond drill result: 725 m @ 0.42% CuEq from 18 m, including 62 m @ 1.03% CuEq from 671 m, which the company says extends the high-grade core ~200 m down-dip. Two rigs are operating, a third is planned for May, and assays remain pending for eleven holes.
Results highlight potential near-surface starter-pit zones and continued footprint growth at La Verde within the Costa Fuego project.
Hot Chili (OTCQX: HHLKF) reported further shallow, high‑grade copper‑gold drilling at La Verde, part of the Costa Fuego project in Chile. Recent holes DKD036 returned 150 m @ 0.52% CuEq from 30 m and DKD035 220 m @ 0.47% CuEq from 38 m, expanding a ~400 m x 400 m higher‑grade near‑surface zone.
Visual chalcopyrite observed in DKD039 over ~150 m downhole width (several intervals >3%) notably expands the high‑grade core; assays are pending and expected April 2026.
Hot Chili (OTC:HHLKF) reported rapid expansion of a gold-rich, high-grade core at the La Verde copper-gold discovery during Q4 2025. Diamond drilling returned long, higher-grade intercepts (example: DKD032 529m @ 0.41% Cu, 0.21 g/t Au from 41m). The results support a potential high-grade starter pit for Costa Fuego, regulatory pad-clearing has begun, strategic partnering processes are advancing, and A$1.8M in VAT/JV recoup was received in January 2026.
Hot Chili (OTCQX: HHLKF) reported Phase two diamond drilling at its La Verde Cu-Au discovery with wide, near-surface mineralisation that expands a developing high‑grade core. Key results include DKD033: 495m @ 0.38% Cu & 0.10 g/t Au from 3m (including 123m @ 0.50% Cu & 0.13 g/t Au) and DKD034: 426m @ 0.37% Cu & 0.08 g/t Au from 194m (including 52m @ 0.50% Cu). Six diamond assays remain pending. Drilling restarted 12 Jan 2026 and results could add open‑pit tonnes to the Costa Fuego 20‑year mine schedule, increasing project leverage to higher copper and gold prices.
Hot Chili (OTCQX: HHLKF) on Dec 10, 2025 reported further drilling success at the La Verde Cu-Au discovery, 30 km south of the Costa Fuego hub.
Key results: DKP005D diamond tail returned 47 m @ 0.57% Cu, 0.12 g/t Au from 247.5 m and 28 m @ 0.49% Cu, 0.15 g/t Au from 316 m. Including the tail, DKP005 now records 317 m @ 0.38% Cu, 0.10 g/t Au from 32–349 m. Prior hole DKD032 recorded 529 m @ 0.41% Cu, 0.21 g/t Au including 148 m @ 0.60% Cu, 0.30 g/t Au.
About 2,900 m of drilling is complete; assays are pending for six diamond holes. Company highlights potential up-dip, near-surface higher-grade core that could strengthen Costa Fuego's starter pit and project economics.
Hot Chili (OTCQX:HHLKF / ASX:HCH) held its Annual General Meeting on 27 November 2025 and announced that all resolutions were passed on a poll.
Key outcomes included: adoption of the remuneration report; election and re-election of directors; re-approval of the Employee Incentive Plan; grant of service, STI and LTI performance rights; approval of auditor; and approval of an Additional Placement Facility. Poll results and proxy details were disclosed for each resolution, with final carried percentages ranging from the high 80s to mid-90s on major items.
Hot Chili (OTCQX: HHLKF) reported first assays from La Verde diamond drilling on Nov 27, 2025, returning a standout twin hole DKD032: 529 m @ 0.41% Cu and 0.21 g/t Au from 41 m to end of hole, including 148 m @ 0.60% Cu & 0.30 g/t Au from 70 m. DKD032 extends discovery hole DKP002 by 221 m and expands mineralisation laterally and to ~600 m vertical depth. 2,700 m of Phase two drilling completed; assays pending for five more diamond holes. Company plans to re-enter DKD032 after mechanical termination. Results may add open-pit material to Costa Fuego mine schedule and affect March 2025 PFS metrics.
