Drillhole FSDH078 was abandoned prior to reaching target depth, and intersected:
14m at 2.10% CuEq from 334m
63m at 1.59% CuEq from 516m
the hole ended in strong mineralization at 579m, and is being reattempted as drillhole FSDH096
Drillhole FSDH087 intersected 1,430m at 0.55% CuEq from a depth of 42m, including:
1,180m at 0.61% CuEq from 292m
16m at 4.73% CuEq from 350m
Collared 470m northeast of FSDH061 and 800m southwest of FSDH075
Commenting on the release, Jamie Beck, President, and CEO stated, "Hole 87 is an incredible result, as it supports the idea of continuous mineralization across the 1.3km distance between the Aurora and Bonita Zones. If Holes 90 and 91, which are currently underway, continue to intersect these kinds of grades and widths, we will have discovered a continuously-mineralized length of at least 5km from Tamberias in the south to Bonita in the north. Hole 78 is located the heart of the Aurora Zone and while the intense hydrothermal alteration in this area created some great mineralization, it also created very challenging drilling conditions. It is exciting that this hole encountered such strong mineralization relatively shallow in the hole and bodes well for extending the high-grade mineralization towards surface as we redrill at this location."

Mineralized zones at Filo del Sol are bulk porphyry-style zones and drilled widths are interpreted to be very close to true widths.  The true widths of specific vein intersections in FSDH087 are unknown and additional drilling is required to define them.
FSDH078 was collared on Section 9200N, 100m west of FSDH041 and drilled to the west at -70 degrees. The hole intersected strongly altered and well-mineralized rock typical of this area of the deposit, including the final 63m of the hole at 1.59% CuEq. The hole was abandoned at 579m and hole FSDH096 is planned in the same location to test this important area.
FSDH087 was collared on Section 10300N, 470m northeast of FSDH061 and 800m southwest of FSDH075 and drilled towards the west at an angle of -70 degrees. Holes FSDH061 and FSDH075 are the closest holes to FSDH087. In addition to the disseminated and veinlet-hosted mineralization typical of most of the deposit drilled to date, hole 87 intersected several high-grade veins in the upper part of the hole. These veins comprise the narrower intersections between 190m and 440m in the table above and are similar in style to both the Maranceles veins outcropping on surface 2km to the northeast, and to a high-grade vein intersected at the top of FSDH085 (8m @7.09% CuEq - See News Release dated July 11, 2023).
These veins are a new style of mineralization at Filo and add a compelling new exploration target to the deposit. The style of veining is similar to NGEx's new Lunahuasi discovery located 7km to the northeast, and has similarities with the El Indio system located 150km to the south.  
Outlook
Drilling is ongoing with nine rigs active on the project, focusing on Aurora infill and the Aurora-Bonita gap. The drilling productivity this Austral winter has been remarkably better compared to last winter, due to milder weather conditions and improvements in operational protocols. Holes FSDH088 and FSDH090 are now complete to depths of 1,052m and 1,619m respectively with assays pending. Assay results for completed holes will be released as they are received, analyzed, and confirmed by the Company.

About Filo del Sol
Filo del Sol is a high-sulphidation epithermal copper-gold-silver deposit associated with one or more large porphyry copper-gold systems. Overlapping mineralizing events combined with weathering effects, including supergene enrichment, have created several different styles of mineralization, including structurally controlled and breccia-hosted gold, manto-style high-grade silver (+/- copper) and high-grade supergene enriched copper within a broader envelope of disseminated, stockwork and breccia-hosted sulphide copper and gold mineralization. This complex geological history has created a heterogeneous orebody which is characterized by zones of very high-grade copper +/- gold +/- silver mineralization within a large envelope of more homogeneous, lower-grade mineralization.
Qualified Persons and Technical Notes
The scientific and technical disclosure for the Filo del Sol Project included in this news release have been reviewed and approved by Bob Carmichael, B.A.Sc., P.Eng. who is the Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.  Mr. Carmichael is Vice President, Exploration for the Company. Samples were cut at Filo's operations base near the town of Guañizuil, Argentina by Company personnel. Diamond drill core was sampled in 2 metre intervals (except where shortened by geological contacts) using a rock saw for sulphide mineralization. Oxide mineralization was cut with a core splitter in order to prevent dissolution of water-soluble copper minerals during the wet sawing process. Core diameter is a mix of PQ, HQ and NQ depending on the depth of the drill hole.  RC samples were collected at the drill site by Company personnel with splitting carried out at the Company's field camp near the drill sites.  Individual samples represent final splits from 2 metre intervals down the hole.  Samples were bagged and tagged and packaged for shipment by truck to the ALS preparation laboratory in Mendoza, Argentina where they were crushed and a 500g split was pulverized to 85% passing 200 mesh. The prepared samples were sent to the ALS assay laboratories in either Lima, Peru or Santiago, Chile for copper, gold and silver assays, and multi-element ICP and sequential copper analyses.  ALS is an accredited laboratory which is independent of the Company.  Gold assays were by fire assay fusion with AAS finish on a 30g sample. Copper and silver were assayed by atomic absorption following a 4-acid digestion.  Samples were also analyzed for a suite of 36 elements with ICP-ES and a sequential copper leach analysis was completed on each sample with copper greater than 500ppm (0.05%). Copper and gold standards as well as blanks and duplicates (field, preparation and analysis) were randomly inserted into the sampling sequence for Quality Control. On average, 9% of the submitted samples are Quality Control samples. No data quality problems were indicated by the QA/QC program.
Mineralized zones within the Filo del Sol deposit are typically flat-lying, or bulk porphyry-style zones and drilled widths are interpreted to be very close to true widths.
1Copper Equivalent (CuEq) for drill intersections is calculated based on US$ 3.00/lb Cu, US$ 1,500/oz Au and US$ 18/oz Ag, with 80% metallurgical recoveries assumed for all metals. The formula is:  CuEq % = Cu % + (0.7292 * Au g/t) + (0.0088 * Ag g/t).
