Eagle Mountain Mining update on Silver Mountain Project

Eagle Mountain Mining Limited (ASX:EM2) is progressing detailed drill planning to test the highly prospective targets identified from recent geophysical modelling at its 100% owned Silver Mountain Project in Arizona, USA. The new geophysics has significantly enhanced the potential of the porphyry-style targets, with CEO Tim Mason expressing excitement about the promising areas characterized by elevated velocity and lowered magnetic response, similar to those found at other world-class porphyry deposits.

Executive Commentary on Silver Mountain Project

We are thrilled to announce that detailed drill planning is currently underway to test the highly prospective targets identified from recent geophysical modelling that has significantly enhanced the potential of our porphyry-style targets at Silver Mountain. These promising areas are characterised by elevated velocity and lowered magnetic response, similar to those found at other world-class porphyry deposits. These geophysical indicators, combined with mapped and sampled surface high-grade copper, silver and gold mineralisation, suggest the possibility of a large-scale porphyry-hydrothermal system at Silver Mountain.

Summary of Silver Mountain Project update

Eagle Mountain Mining (ASX:EM2) has made significant progress in strengthening the copper porphyry potential at its Silver Mountain Project in Arizona, USA. The detailed drill planning for both near-surface high-grade breccias and veins, as well as deeper porphyry targets, is a key focus following the successful new and existing geophysics. The company's CEO, Tim Mason, expressed confidence in the potential of Silver Mountain, citing geophysical indicators and surface mineralisation as promising signs of a large-scale porphyry-hydrothermal system. The project's location on the Laramide Arc, known for hosting world-class porphyry copper mines, further adds to the optimism. Eagle Mountain Mining's ongoing exploration efforts aim to confirm the potential of these targets and identify additional zones that could provide near-surface high-grade copper mineralisation. The company's technical confidence has led to various planning activities to support future drilling, including drill permit applications and contractor tendering. With similarities to porphyry deposits across the globe, the Silver Mountain Project holds the potential to become the next major copper discovery in the Laramide Arc.
