Cupani Metals Corporation intersected magmatic massive sulphides in three of the first four diamond drill holes completed during its summer campaign at the Blue Lake copper-nickel-PGE project in Quebec.

The 100% owned property covers 682 square kilometres of exploration claims located 65 kilometres from Schefferville. The recent drilling targeted a high-priority corridor that remains open along a strike length of at least 16 kilometres.

Hole CU26-07 returned 1.8 metres of magmatic massive sulphides from 208.0 metres, testing the up-dip extension of a mineralized horizon found in earlier drilling. Hole CU26-08 intersected 0.5 metres of massive sulphides from 256.35 metres at the base of a 150-metre-thick ultramafic unit. Hole CU26-10 yielded a 2.45-metre interval of magmatic massive sulphides from 159.1 metres, slightly wider than the 2.35-metre intersection returned by discovery hole CUP26-06 during the previous drilling phase. A fourth hole, CUP26-09, intersected a differentiated ultramafic and mafic intrusion that was unmineralized.

Drilling remains ongoing, with the summer program expected to be completed by the end of September 2026. Samples from the massive sulphide intervals have been sent to ALS Global in Val d'Or for rush laboratory analysis, with assay results anticipated in the coming weeks.

“Our summer drilling program has been highly successful to date, with 3 of 4 holes intersecting massive sulphides at the base of the ultramafic units. These results clearly validate our new geological interpretation and confirm that we are exploring a robust metallogenic system with the potential to produce thick, significant intersections.”
