It's looking like Hercules is getting very close to one of the porphyry sources on the Leviathan property

Latest drill hole hit porphyry mineralisation just 70m below surface into the enrichment zone at the southern margin

@HerculesMetals Latest hole returned 338m of 0.47% Cu (not CuEq), with the final 154m ending in 0.51% Cu

Looking at the cross section, all holes into this new Target Zone end in strong mineralisation
It exhibits not only increasing grades to the north, but is also getting closer to surface

@HerculesMetals The hole in question -a 330m stepout- intersected 300m of 0.70% CuEq

This includes a 138m section grading 1.01% CuEq (0.85% Copper)

Hit directly at the edges of a multi-km & untested Copper soil anomaly which will be a focus of the upcoming drill program

@HerculesMetals Can you spot this immense soil anomaly?

Hint: Eastern Block Zone

The 2nd hole in this release was 24-19, to the south
You wouldn't tell from this map, but located 530m from the headline hole
This stepout hit 149m of 0.78% CuEq
Another nice one to push out the boundaries

@HerculesMetals Final holes of the 2024 program are pending and could surprise

24-21 which is "near" the hole discussed today

24-22 which is "near" their discovery hole of 185m of 0.92% CuEq

"near" in BIG terms means multiple 100s of metres 😉

@HerculesSilver_ I believe almost every active junior mining investor is paying attention after this result:

➡️185m of 0.84% Cu (NOT equivalent), 111 ppm Mo & 2.6 g/t Ag

Remember, this is the bottom part of the hole that already hit 28.5m of 102.6 g/t AgEq 👇

@HerculesMetals So far Hercules only drilled ~5% of its property

Earlier IP surveys indicated that mineralisation extends beyond the current drill area

Many anomalies remain open outside the survey area, which is why they're considering the largest geophys survey ever at the property

@HerculesMetals The 2024 assay season could go out with a bang, possibly even 2

Drilling to restart with thaw

They've already stepped out hard last year, drilling a 1 X 2km area with no limits yet determined

Expanding this further next year, whilst honing in on the porphyry centres
