Star Copper Corp. Expands Copper System with Record Drill Program

Star Copper Corp. has concluded its largest drill program at the Star Project in British Columbia's Golden Triangle. This expansive 2026 exploration effort involved 28 drill holes, totaling 10,419 meters, using two mobile rigs over five months. The drilling has significantly expanded the Star Main copper-gold porphyry system, with notable advances in northeast and western targets.

The program made substantial progress with 24 holes adding 9,357 meters to the Star Main project. The northeast expansion confirmed new geological routes, while the western frontier encountered strong visible copper at significant depths. These zones remain open for further investigation.

Additionally, 3D IP and MT geophysical surveys were completed over 37 line-kilometers, enhancing the project's three-dimensional geological interpretation. Assays from the entire drill initiative are awaited, supporting the aim for a maiden mineral resource estimate by 2027.
