Copper One Resources Corp. has commenced a detailed geological study of drill core from its 2026 Phase 1 drilling program at the Majuba Hill copper-silver-gold project in Pershing County, Nevada.

The Phase 1 program comprised 4,015 feet of core drilling, bringing cumulative drilling to approximately 93,410 feet. The study integrates core logging with petrographic analysis, examining mineral assemblages, alteration relationships, breccia textures, and sulphide distribution.

Assay results remain pending from ALS Laboratories, and visual mineral identifications have not yet been confirmed by laboratory analysis.

The work is designed to strengthen the company's geological understanding and refine the three-dimensional model in advance of the pending 2026 Phase 2 drill program, which will be guided by these results.

“The recently completed Phase 1 drill program has provided important new geological information from the Majuba Hill system,” said David Greenway, President and CEO of Copper One. “The results will help refine our geological model and guide the selection and orientation of targets for the planned Phase 2 drill program.”

Regional exploration activity continues across the Nevada district, where Hycroft Mining Holding Corp. recently reported gold and silver drill intercepts at the Hycroft Mine, sharing commodities with Majuba Hill.
