Fitzroy Minerals Reports Strong Copper‑Equivalent Results at Caballos and Confirms Buen Retiro’s Geological Similarity to Chile’s Candelaria District

Fitzroy Minerals Inc. (TSXV: FTZ, OTCQB: FTZFF) has released a detailed exploration update for its copper assets in northern Chile, highlighting a significant intercept at the Caballos Copper Project and new geological insights at the nearby Buen Retiro project. In drill hole CAB‑DDH004A, the company intersected 176 metres grading 0.31% copper, 249 ppm molybdenum, and 0.04 g/t gold — equivalent to 0.47% copper‑equivalent — starting from 156 metres depth, demonstrating a robust copper‑molybdenum‑gold system with multiple phases of mineralization typical of classic Chilean porphyry deposits. An airborne MobileMT geophysical survey covering 716 line‑km is slated for completion in Q1 2026 to refine targets at Caballos. At the Buen Retiro project, structural and geological assessments by visiting lecturer Dr. Irene del Real Contreras indicate that the setting and mineralization are analogous to Chile’s prolific Candelaria district, with only minor differences. This analogy reinforces the potential scale and prospectivity of the Buen Retiro copper system. Merlin Marr‑Johnson, President and CEO, emphasized that these results, combined with ongoing exploration and upcoming geophysical data, position Fitzroy Minerals for a transformative year as they pursue discovery and de‑risking goals across both projects. #FitzroyMinerals #CopperExploration #ChileMining #PorphyryCopper #SlimScan #GrowthStocks #CANSLIM
