VANCOUVER, BC, June 11, 2025 /CNW/ - Vizsla Copper Corp. (TSXV: VCU) (OTCQB: VCUFF) (FRANKFURT: 97E0) (" Vizsla Copper" or the " Company") is pleased to report results from a recently completed induced polarization (IP) survey across the M5 target at the Copperview project (the " Project" or " Copperview") in central British Columbia (Figure 1).
HIGHLIGHTS
New IP data enhances the M5 target: New chargeability and resistivity data demonstrate strong prospectivity for porphyry-related mineralization at Copperview.
Untested geophysical anomalies: Coincident chargeability, magnetic and AFMAG anomalies define the broad M5 target area which has never been drill tested.
Follow-up programs planned: The largely covered and concealed M5 target area will be the focus of upcoming soil geochemical surveys aimed at refining drill targets.
"We have now defined a broad 3.5 km 2 chargeability anomaly at Copperview across a dominantly till-covered area which has never been drill tested," commented Steve Blower, Vice President of Exploration. "The presence of overlapping geophysical anomalies strongly supports the high-prospectivity for mineralization across this area. We will follow-up with soil geochemical surveys and continued mapping aimed at advancing M5 to drill ready stage."
The Copperview IP Survey
The grid-based IP survey across the M5 target consisted of over 20 line kilometers across seven east-west oriented lines spaced 300 meters apart (Figure 2). The survey was designed to characterize and detect subsurface sulfide mineralization associated with pronounced coincident geophysical (magnetic and MobileMT 1) anomalies at the M5 target area (Figure 1). The IP survey expanded on the 2024 survey where two lines defined an open-ended, high-chargeability anomaly (see February 19 th, 2025 news release).
The broadly northwest-southeast oriented >20 mv/v M5 chargeability-high anomaly spans 2.5 by 1.4 kilometers (Figure 2). The core of the chargeability-high anomaly is spatially associated with a strong conductivity-high (resistivity-low) anomaly observed in the ground IP data as well as the recently compiled MobileMT 1 survey (see November 2 nd, 2023 News Release). The intensity of the chargeability anomaly increases with depth (Figure 3)
The M5 target is along trend, 6.5 kilometers north of Kodiak Copper's Gate discovery 2 (Figure 1). Porphyry-related copper and gold mineralization at the Gate discovery is spatially associated with a strong chargeability-high coincident with a similar break in the regional-scale magnetic-high lineament (Figure 1). The M5 target has never been drill tested.
Next Steps
This new chargeability and resistivity data supports the strong prospectivity of the dominantly till-covered area for concealed, porphyry-related mineralization. A grid-based soil geochemical survey covering the M5 target will commence in the coming weeks. Contingent on geochemical results, the M5 target may be drill tested later this year.
