Torr Metals Expands Kolos Copper-Gold Project by 75% and Prepares for 2024 Field Season

Torr Metals

Torr Metals CEO Malcolm Dorsey joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a significant expansion of the Kolos Copper-Gold Project. Through strategic staking, Torr Metals has increased the project area by 75%, growing from approximately 140 km² to 240 km². This expansion focuses on the northern area of the project, following the extension of the north-trending Fanta Fault. This fault has been identified by the company as a major structural control on copper and gold mineralization in the region. Dorsey also shared that, in conjunction with the project expansion, the company has mobilized a field team in preparation for the upcoming 2024 field season. The team will conduct early reconnaissance at multiple newly identified exploration targets, including a newly discovered mineralized outcrop in the Vik Zone. This proactive approach aims to identify and assess the potential of these targets to expand the resource base and enhance the project's overall value. The Vik Zone outcrop is the first new mineralized rock exposure identified and sampled by Torr Metals within an area that had been recognized as a potential source for anomalous historical silt samples. A rock grab sample taken in 2023 from this outcrop yielded 379 parts per million (ppm) copper (Cu) and 238 ppm molybdenum (Mo). This outcrop is located near a high resistivity ZTEM anomaly, which is interpreted as a potential source intrusion for the mineralization. This anomaly will be one of the key exploration targets for early reconnaissance in 2024. Dorsey emphasized the importance of these new findings, stating that the expansion and identification of new targets significantly enhance the potential of the Kolos Copper-Gold Project. The company's focus on systematic exploration and early-stage reconnaissance aims to uncover additional high-value mineral resources, contributing to the project's growth and development. Looking ahead, Torr Metals is committed to advancing the Kolos Copper-Gold Project through a combination of strategic expansion, rigorous exploration, and efficient resource development. The upcoming 2024 field season will play a crucial role in assessing the newly identified targets and further delineating the mineral potential of the expanded project area.

Altiplano Metals CEO Discusses Expansion Plans Amid Strong Copper and Gold Markets

Altiplano Metals

Altiplano Metals CEO Alastair McIntyre joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the latest results from the company's underground and surface channel sampling at the Santa Beatriz Copper-Gold-Iron Project. The recent sampling efforts confirmed high-grade copper-gold mineralization within the Santa Beatriz vein complex. In total, 98 samples were collected, completing 37 sampling channels, providing substantial data on the vein’s mineral content. McIntyre highlighted the significant potential for further developing Santa Beatriz to enhance its production of copper, gold, and iron. Currently, the mine operates under a permit allowing for 3,000 tonnes per month (tpm), but the company plans to apply for an increase to 5,000 tpm through the appropriate mining authorities. The Santa Beatriz Mine is strategically located just 2 kilometers from Altiplano’s existing Farellon Copper-Gold-Iron Mine operation and 13 kilometers from the El Peñón processing plant near La Serena, Chile. Both the Santa Beatriz and Farellon mines are iron oxide copper-gold (IOCG) deposits situated within Chile's copper-rich IOCG belt, which is associated with the Atacama Fault zone. Looking ahead, Altiplano Metals has several strategic initiatives planned. The company aims to report financial and productivity improvements from its mill operations, continue the underground development at Farellon, and explore further opportunities at Santa Beatriz. With the copper and gold markets performing strongly, these efforts are expected to enhance Altiplano's growth and profitability. Moreover, Altiplano is committed to expanding its asset base while focusing on shareholder returns and maintaining strong environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices. The company’s strategy includes not only increasing production capacity but also ensuring sustainable and responsible mining practices that align with global ESG standards. McIntyre expressed optimism about the future, noting that the confirmed high-grade mineralization at Santa Beatriz and the potential for increased production capacity present significant opportunities for the company. By leveraging these assets and the favorable market conditions for copper and gold, Altiplano is well-positioned to deliver robust growth and value to its shareholders.

Super League generated solid revenue of $4.2 million, marking a 27% increase compared to the same quarter last year and aligning with consensus forecasts.

OCEAN establece un centro global en El Salvador

Bitcoin Ocean,LLC

San Salvador, SV, 29 de mayo de 2024 – OCEAN [ enlace ], el grupo de minería de Bitcoin respaldado por Jack Dorsey y liderado por el veterano desarrollador de Bitcoin Core, Luke Dashjr, anunció hoy que ha formado una entidad en El Salvador, que funcionará como el centro internacional de desarrollo empresarial de la compañía. OCEAN MINING S.A. de C.V tendrá su sede en la capital, San Salvador, y planea utilizar este centro para continuar avanzando en la descentralización de la minería de Bitcoin en todo el mundo. El cofundador y CTO (director técnico) de OCEAN, Luke Dashjr, quien a principios de este año habló con estudiantes universitarios en el programa CUBO+ de San Salvador, comentó: «El Salvador está a la vanguardia en la adopción de Bitcoin y la minería de Bitcoin, y creemos que la presencia de OCEAN aquí ayudará a avanzar en estos esfuerzos y crear nuevas oportunidades tanto en El Salvador como en otros lugares». El presidente de OCEAN, Mark Artymko, agregó: «Para impulsar nuestros esfuerzos de descentralización necesitábamos una presencia global, y El Salvador fue la elección obvia. Con lugares como Venezuela y la UE imponiendo legislación para prohibir la minería de Bitcoin, la postura política de El Salvador fue un marcado contraste y un faro de esperanza para la industria». El Salvador se ha ganado el prestigioso título de «País Bitcoin» como resultado de su decisión no solo de hacer del Bitcoin moneda de curso legal en 2021, sino también de mantenerse firme en su compromiso únicamente con Bitcoin. De hecho, es en gran parte gracias a este título de País Bitcoin que OCEAN, el único grupo de minería enfocado exclusivamente en Bitcoin, está interesado en establecer una presencia en el país para diferenciarse de otros grupos de minería más enfocados en criptomonedas. Stacy Herbert, de la Oficina de Bitcoin de El Salvador, dio la bienvenida a la noticia de OCEAN, diciendo: «Esta decisión del equipo de OCEAN Mining reafirma que la cultura de Bitcoin que estamos construyendo en El Salvador está proporcionando las herramientas que los emprendedores de todo el mundo necesitan para prosperar en una economía Bitcoin. Damos la bienvenida a OCEAN y a todas las demás empresas que trabajan para avanzar la adopción de Bitcoin». Hablando sobre los próximos planes de descentralización de OCEAN, Bitcoin Mechanic, Jefe Global de Ventas de OCEAN, dijo: «Stratum V2 es solo el comienzo. Para nosotros, va mucho más allá y se trata de cambiar el equilibrio de poder de unos pocos grupos y acercar a los mineros de todos los tamaños al núcleo de Bitcoin. Llevar estas características al mercado desde nuestro nuevo centro global en El Salvador garantizará el máximo alcance y adopción en un entorno regulatorio seguro». OCEAN Mining dijo que espera proporcionar recursos para continuar con la educación y el desarrollo de las comunidades Bitcoin en El Salvador, incluyendo lugares como El Zonte, comúnmente conocido como “Bitcoin Beach”, que han prosperado gracias a sus economías circulares orgánicas. Acerca de OCEAN: OCEAN está liderando la carga hacia la descentralización en la minería de Bitcoin al empoderar a los mineros para que retomen el control de las partes inteligentes de la minería. OCEAN es no custodial, transparente y sin permisos. Contacto de prensa: media@ocean.sv OCEAN.SV is owned and operated by OCEAN MINING, Sociedad Anónima de Capital Variable, San Salvador, El Salvador.

OCEAN establishes global hub in El Salvador

Bitcoin Ocean,LLC

San Salvador, SV, May 29, 2024 – OCEAN [ link ], the Bitcoin mining pool backed by Jack Dorsey and spearheaded by longtime Bitcoin Core developer Luke Dashjr, announced today that it has formed an entity in El Salvador, which will function as the company’s international hub of business development. OCEAN MINING S.A. de C.V will be headquartered in the capital city of San Salvador, and plans to use this hub to continue the advancement of decentralization of Bitcoin mining across the globe. OCEAN’s co-founder and CTO Luke Dashjr, who earlier this year spoke to university students at the San Salvador CUBO+ program, commented: “El Salvador is on the leading edge of Bitcoin and Bitcoin mining adoption, and we believe OCEAN’s presence here will help to advance these efforts here and create new opportunities for El Salvador and elsewhere.” OCEAN’s President Mark Artymko added, “To further our decentralization efforts we needed a global presence, and El Salvador was the obvious choice. With places like Venezuela and the EU imposing legislation to ban Bitcoin mining, El Salvador’s political stance was in stark contrast and a beacon of hope for the industry.” El Salvador has earned itself the esteemed title of “Bitcoin Country'' as a result of its decision to not only make Bitcoin legal tender in 2021 but also in remaining steadfast in their commitment to Bitcoin only. It is, in fact, in large part because of the Bitcoin Country brand that OCEAN, the only mining pool focused exclusively on Bitcoin, is interested in establishing a presence in the country so as to differentiate themselves from other more crypto focused mining pools. Stacy Herbert of El Salvador’s Bitcoin Office welcomed the news by OCEAN, saying, “This decision by the OCEAN Mining team reaffirms that the Bitcoin-first culture we are building in El Salvador is providing the tools that entrepreneurs around the world need to thrive in a Bitcoin economy. We welcome OCEAN and all other companies working to advance Bitcoin adoption.” Speaking to OCEAN’s upcoming plans for decentralization, Bitcoin Mechanic, Global Head of Sales at OCEAN, said, “Stratum V2 is just the start. For us it goes much deeper and is about shifting the balance of power away from a handful of pools and bringing miners of all sizes closer to the nucleus of Bitcoin. Bringing these features to market from our new global hub in El Salvador will ensure maximum reach and adoption in a safe regulatory environment.” OCEAN Mining said that it is looking forward to providing resources to continue the education and development of Bitcoin communities in El Salvador, including places like El Zonte, commonly known as “Bitcoin Beach”, which have prospered thanks to their organic circular economies. About OCEAN: OCEAN is leading the charge to decentralization in Bitcoin Mining by empowering miners to take back control of the intelligent parts of mining. OCEAN is non-custodial, transparent, and permissionless.
