Blackstone Minerals’ Managing Director, Scott Williamson, commented:

“Previously unreleased drillhole BRC-60 is one of the best drillhole intersections into the Mankayan Copper-Gold Porphyry confirming the project as one of the best undeveloped Copper-Gold projects globally. Mankayan remains open at depth and along strike to the north, and we are fully committed to allocating resources to thoroughly explore the full extent of the mineralisation. Our goal is to continue building a globally significant mining inventory that will form a key component of our studies and development plans."
