Infinitum Copper Corp. updates on La Adelita and Hot Breccia projects in Mexico

La Adelita project:

Infinitum Copper Corp. is advancing the La Adelita project in Mexico with equipment mobilization set to begin the week of July 29, 2024. Initial work will focus on accessing the Cerro Grande adit. Upon successful access, a mining contractor will be engaged to create a 100-meter long, 3 by 3 meter access tunnel to the mineralized body, intersecting drill hole AD1010 from 2022. Drill hole AD022 previously reported x% copper and 1 g/t gold over a true width of x meters.

Cautionary note:

The decision to potentially advance the mine into production or undertake other related activities is based on internal, non-public data and historical reports rather than NI 43-101 compliant reserve estimates, preliminary economic assessments, or feasibility studies. This approach introduces increased risk and uncertainty regarding future economic outcomes, mineral recovery and overall project viability.

Hot Breccia project:

In January 2023, Infinitum Copper granted an option to Prismo Metals for the Hot Breccia project. Prismo has made significant progress, including completing a VTEM survey in July 2023 and securing drilling permits from the Bureau of Land Management for 10 drill pads. Steve Robertson, President of Prismo Metals and former President of Infinitum Copper, emphasized the importance of this drill program, marking the first exploration in five decades for this high-potential target known for historical copper intercepts exceeding 1% and elevated zinc levels. The 5,000-meter drilling program aims to pinpoint the core of a significant mineralizing system in a renowned copper district.

Director and key personnel remuneration:

The board has approved a remuneration package for current directors and key personnel, including 1,340,000 Deferred Share Units (DSUs) vesting on March 16, 2026, and 1,650,000 options with a strike price of $0.08, vesting in three tranches beginning March 2025.

Europa MEuropa Metals has secured A$4 million (€2.47 million) through a share placement and commenced trading on the Australian Securities Exchange, providing funding for exploration across its Austrian antimony and gold portfolio. The capital is intended primarily for projects in the Carinthia region, where historical mining and documented mineral occurrences will be assessed using modern exploration techniques. The company issued 20 million shares at A$0.20 each ahead of its ASX admission. The start of trading marks a new stage in its efforts to evaluate mineral potential across several historically explored Austrian districts. Exploration Priorities in Carinthia Europa’s principal targets are Kreuzeck West, Kreuzeck East and Goldeck-Siflitz, which contain historical workings and mineral occurrences associated with potential antimony and gold mineralisation. The wider portfolio also includes Schellgaden, prospective for gold and tungsten, and Leogang, where historical base-metal mineralisation has been identified. Kreuzeck West covers approximately 21.1 square kilometres, with a mineralised trend extending for around 9 kilometres. Europa intends to integrate historical geological records with modern geophysical surveys, verification sampling and targeted drilling to assess the continuity and extent of mineralisation. Resource Definition and Technical Work The exploration programme will focus on verifying historical mineralisation, refining geological interpretations and selecting drill targets. The objective is to determine whether existing workings and mineral occurrences correspond to continuous mineralised systems that could support modern resource estimates. No JORC-compliant mineral resource or ore reserve has been established across the Austrian portfolio. The current funding is therefore intended for exploration rather than mine development. Licence renewals may also be required for parts of the portfolio as work advances. Antimony Supply and European Industrial Demand Antimony is used in flame retardants, specialised alloys, defence applications and advanced industrial products. European industry remains heavily dependent on imported supplies, increasing interest in potential domestic sources and historically mined districts that have not been fully evaluated using modern exploration methods. Austria’s established infrastructure and proximity to European industrial customers could support future project development if exploration establishes sufficient mineral grade, continuity and scale. The immediate technical milestones are the planned geophysical programmes, verification of historical mineralisation and selection of drilling locations. The results will determine whether the Austrian assets can advance towards compliant resource definition.etals Raises €2.47 Million for Austrian Antimony and Gold Exploration
