In the United States, specifically in Cochise County, Arizona, Intrepid Metals Corp. has announced the initiation of its drilling program at the Corral Copper Property on April 29, 2025. This project is part of the prolific Turquoise District and marks the company’s second drill program at Corral. It involves diamond drilling across three key zones: Ringo, Earp, and Holliday. Notably, the recent drilling at Ringo will help refine the geological model and enhance the effectiveness of the ongoing drilling efforts. The company hopes to capitalize on its earlier positive results and further delineate the extensive mineralizations identified in previous years. Historical data from over 50,000 meters of previous drilling, mostly within these zones, will serve as a foundation for exploration targeting, despite the destruction of the core samples. Moreover, Intrepid Metals has entered an agreement to amend a previous option deal for a 100% interest in the Tombstone South Property, located in Arizona, adding to its portfolio of advanced exploration opportunities in this mineral-rich region. There remains a focus on using these drill-ready projects, like Corral and Tombstone South, to establish further development and exploration strategies that align with the company’s goals of identifying significant mineral deposits and expanding their operations efficiently.
