Solis Minerals has obtained drilling permits for its Cinto copper project in southern Peru, allowing the company to start a diamond drilling campaign. The focus is on testing geochemical and geophysical targets identified by an IP survey. The project is near major copper mines and lies along a significant fault zone. Mobilization for drilling is set to begin soon.

The Cinto copper project is strategically located near established copper mines in Peru, with significant annual production. It is part of a porphyry belt and located along a major geological fault zone associated with other key deposits in the region. The Incapuquio fault zone is crucial for the area’s tectonic evolution.

Solis Minerals CEO, Mitch Thomas, expressed excitement over the drilling permits, highlighting the project’s mineralized footprint, proximity to major mines, and regional infrastructure. The company is focused on unlocking the potential of its South American copper assets and expanding its portfolio in Peru’s coastal belt.

Solis Minerals is actively pursuing exploration and development opportunities in South America, particularly in Peru’s copper-rich regions. The company’s goal is to leverage its expertise and resources to maximize the value of its assets and deliver returns to its shareholders.
