Titan Minerals Ltd (ASX:TTM) CEO Melanie Leighton is back with Proactive to discuss an emerging copper-gold porphyry footprint at the Copper Duke Project in southern Ecuador.
Copper Duke is an expansive asset, but Titan is particularly interested in the El Huato and Lumapamba prospects, where it plans to conduct drilling following promising trench and channel sampling assays.
Leighton says the icing on the cake is confirmation of the mineralisation age at Copper Duke, indicating the company could be on top of a giant system that’s similar in age to the mega porphyries of southern Peru.
“These excellent channel and trench results are a testament to the efforts of our Copper Duke geology team, who have continued to improve the company’s geological understanding through systematic boots-on-ground exploration,” she told the market on Tuesday.
“The potential for substantial copper and gold mineralisation at the El Huato and Lumapamba prospects is now confirmed, with detailed mapping and trench results vectoring us to the best part of the mineral system and the optimal location to commence drill testing.
“We are now well positioned to test these exciting targets and are in the final stages of drill design and organising all necessary logistics, including the construction of an on-site office, core logging and camp facilities at the project.”
