T2 Metals Announces High Grade Rock Chip Copper Results from Copper Eagle Project, Nevada
T2 Metals Corp (TSXV: TWO) (OTCQB: TWOSF) has announced high-grade rock chip results from its fall 2024 sampling program at the Copper Eagle copper-gold project in Nevada. The company collected 21 representative rock chip and channel samples, revealing elevated copper grades across a 450m by 150m area. Copper values ranged from 0.11% to 2.07%, averaging 0.78%, while silver values ranged from 0.17 g/t to 6.05 g/t, averaging 1.82 g/t.
The project is located near several major copper mines, including the Anaconda Copper Mine, Hudbay Minerals' Mason Project, and Kinterra Capital's Pumpkin Hollow Mine. The assay results and alteration profile suggest an oxidized zone associated with porphyry copper mineralization, similar to the nearby Yerington deposit.
T2 Metals Corp (TSXV: TWO) (OTCQB: TWOSF) ha annunciato risultati di campionamento di alta qualità per le rocce nel suo programma di campionamento dell'autunno 2024 presso il progetto Copper Eagle di rame-oro in Nevada. L'azienda ha raccolto 21 campioni rappresentativi di rocce e canali, rivelando elevate concentrazioni di rame in un'area di 450 m per 150 m. I valori di rame variavano da 0,11% a 2,07%, con una media di 0,78%, mentre i valori d'argento variavano da 0,17 g/t a 6,05 g/t, con una media di 1,82 g/t.
Il progetto è situato vicino a diverse principali miniere di rame, tra cui la Miniera di Rame Anaconda, il Progetto Mason della Hudbay Minerals e la Miniera Pumpkin Hollow della Kinterra Capital. I risultati delle analisi e il profilo di alterazione suggeriscono una zona ossidata associata alla mineralizzazione di rame porfirico, simile al vicino deposito di Yerington.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 11, 2024) - T2 Metals Corp. (TSXV: TWO) (OTCQB: TWOSF) (WKN: A2DR6E) ("T2" or the "Company") is pleased to announce rock chip results from the fall 2024 field sampling program at the Company's
During the fall 2024 sampling program, the T2 Metals' field crew located numerous trenches dug by Smith Copper in the 1960s/70s and collected 21 representative rock chip and channel samples where bedrock was exposed. Samples are typically comprised of felsic intrusive rocks and associated contact skarn. While visible oxide copper mineralization occurs at surface at Copper Eagle, assay results also demonstrated that elevated copper grades are present across a broad area of 450m by 150m, even where no mineralization is visible. For samples collected across the project, copper ranged from
In addition to laboratory multielement assay, samples were laboratory-analysed using a TerraSpec multispectral scanner to help identify prospectivity of the mineralized area and compare to other deposits in Nevada.
Table 1. Elevated assay results from Copper Eagle rock chip sampling. (UTM Zone 11N, WGS84)
| Sample No | Sample Type | Easting | Northing | Copper (%) | Silver (g/t) | Description |
| 1030169 | ROCKCHIP | 278,942 | 4327440 | 0.54 | 0.4 | Outcrop/trench |
| 1030171 | ROCKCHIP | 278,725 | 4327545 | 0.89 | 1.9 | Float/trench |
| 1030170 | ROCKCHIP | 279,002 | 4327422 | 1.07 | 1.2 | Outcrop/trench |
| 1030168 | ROCKCHIP | 278,999 | 4327435 | 1.22 | 4.1 | Float/trench |
| 1030167 | ROCKCHIP | 278,968 | 4327420 | 2.07 | 6.1 | Outcrop/trench |
The assay results and alteration profile are consistent with an oxidized zone associated with porphyry copper mineralization, similar in style to the outcropping area of the nearby Yerington deposit. Traces of sulfur in samples 1030171 and 1030173 at Copper Eagle, taken from relatively un-weathered part of the mineralization, indicate the presence of copper as sulfides in addition to the carbonates and oxides that are visible in the central part of the exposed area.
"From historical records and previous site visits we have known that Copper Eagle has potential to host a porphyry copper deposit," said Mr Mark Saxon, President and CEO of T2 Metals Corp. "The results from samples taken during the 2024 fall field program are encouraging, and we are now moving ahead with a plan for geophysics to delineate targets at Copper Eagle. The Company's Chief Geologist Anders Hogrelius recently attended the American Exploration and Mining Association conference in Reno to discuss support opportunities with contracting and consulting groups.
T2 Metal's North American project portfolio coupled with the rising demand for copper, silver and gold, makes T2 Metals Corp a well positioned company."

The Copper Eagle copper project is located in Douglas County, Nevada, approximately 21 km southeast of Carson City and 32 km WNW of Yerington. The nearby Yerington mining district is a prolific copper producing region and is host to several world class copper mines and deposits including Yerington (162 mt @
Copper Eagle lies within the Walker Lane Mineral Belt, in the vicinity of world class porphyry and skarn type copper projects. Exploration at Copper Eagle was last recorded over 50 years ago, when significant zones of oxidized copper mineralization were exposed by a consortium of owners (I. Smith, J. Smith and P. Gerken) beneath shallow alluvial cover. Original exploration company records acquired by T2 Metals from the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology show trenching at Copper Eagle discovered sulfide and oxide copper mineralization over an area of at least 500 m by 200 m (as reported by consulting geologist Majid Shokohi for Smith Copper, 1971).
All samples were delivered in person for assay and multispectral scanning to the ALS Global laboratory in Reno, Nevada. Samples were analysed using four acid digestion followed by ICP-MS assay (ME-MS61) and four acid digestion and ICP finish with 0.4g assay (Cu-OG62) for over-range samples. Additionally, all samples were assayed for gold using Au by aqua regia extraction with ICP-MS finish with 50g assay (Au-ST44).
Industry standard procedures for sampling and chain-of-custody of the collected samples have been followed for the field sampling. However, any references to the terms "ore minerals", "mineralization" or "mineralized zones" are purely for descriptive purposes and are not intended to be interpreted as or relied upon for any resource or economic evaluation of the project at this time.
