Wide & Shallow Cu-Au Drill Results Lift Cortadera

Highlights:

·       New drill results from the Cortadera copper-gold porphyry deposit in Chile confirm growth of shallow resources at both Cuerpo 1 and 2.  These include:

CRP0148 – 156m grading 0.4% CuEq* (0.4% copper (Cu), 0.1g/t gold (Au)) from surface,

including 32m grading 0.6%CuEq* (0.5% copper (Cu), 0.2g/t gold (Au)) from 90m depth

CRP0183 – 80m grading 0.4% CuEq* (0.4% copper (Cu), 0.1g/t gold (Au)) from 10m depth

including 12m grading 0.6%CuEq* (0.6% copper (Cu), 0.1g/t gold (Au)) from 44m depth

CRP0178 – 72m grading 0.4% CuEq* (0.4% copper (Cu), 0.1g/t gold (Au)) from surface

including 28m grading 0.7%CuEq* (0.7% copper (Cu), 0.1g/t gold (Au)) from surface

CRP0176 – 114m grading 0.3% CuEq* (0.3% copper (Cu), 0.1g/t gold (Au)) from surface

including 24m grading 0.6%CuEq* (0.6% copper (Cu), 0.1g/t gold (Au)) from surface

CRP0158 – 62m grading 0.4% CuEq* (0.4% copper (Cu), 0.1g/t gold (Au)) from 4m depth

including 18m grading 0.7%CuEq (0.6% copper (Cu), 0.2g/t gold (Au)) from 26m depth

·       Exploration drilling commenced across the Productora central porphyry target, immediately adjacent to the Productora Mineral Resource – several large copper-gold targets scheduled for testing this year

·       Further assay results from Cortadera being compiled for release in advance of a major resource upgrade in Q1 this year, following over 46,000m of additional drilling completed in 2021

Hot Chili’s Managing Director, Christian Easterday, said 2022 is shaping up to be an exciting year following a very strong set of achievements in 2021.

“We commence the year with $34 million in treasury, 100 percent ownership of Cortadera, Glencore as a strategic investor and our Company now consolidated and dual-listed in Canada.”

Cortadera Copper Deposit

Cortadera’s maiden Mineral Resource positions Hot Chili with the largest copper Mineral Resource and one of the largest gold Mineral Resources for an ASX-listed emerging company. 

The Cortadera maiden Mineral Resource of 451Mt at 0.46% copper equivalent (CuEq) takes the total Mineral Resource estimate for Costa Fuego (Cortadera, Productora & El Fuego) to 724Mt at 0.48% CuEq for 2.9Mt copper, 2.7Moz gold, 9.9Moz Silver and 64kt molybdenum. Cortadera also contains a higher grade component of 104Mt at 0.74% CuEq, and this has strong potential to continue growing rapidly with further drilling.View the Cortadera Copper Deposit

Diamond Drilling at Cortadera

Hot Chili (ASX:HCH) is pleased to provide the latest Commodities Research by Goldman Sachs, published 13 April 2021. 

An excerpt from the research is below:

No decarbonisation without copper. After a year of the global pandemic, with its supply chain disruptions, race for PPE, testing kits and vaccines, the critical importance of securing sufficient raw materials in combating society’s problems has never been more in focus. This importance extends to the next greatest challenge of our time: climate change. The critical role copper will play in achieving the Paris climate goals cannot be understated.

Copper Market heading for a severe supply shortage

Diamond Drilling at Cortadera

Hot Chili (ASX:HCH) is pleased to provide the following article taken from “Ahead of the Heard”. The article discusses the future of copper and the fact that the copper market is heading for a severe supply shortage due to a perfect storm of under-exploration/ lack of discovery of new deposits, clashing with a huge increase in demand due to electrification and decarbonization.

Welcome Back Copper


View the Cortadera Project

The price of copper has hit an 8 year high this morning at US$3.78/lb.

Copper is back to levels not seen since 2013, with the current market rally driven by = US stimulus driving economic + lower inventors + inflation expectations.

Hot Chili’s Costa Fuego copper resource in Chile is the largest copper resource held by an ASX-listed company, outside of the control of a major miner.

Costa Fuego’s resource stands at 2.9Mt of contained copper metal, 2.7Moz gold, 9.9Moz Silver and 64kt molybdenum (3.5Mt CuEq metal).

The Company looks forward to an exciting year of news flow from an aggressive, fully funded, 40,000m drilling programme which aims to establish Costa Fuego as the only Tier-1 copper developer on the ASX.

A strong period of news flow has begun and the Directors look forward to providing regular updates on our multiple activity streams.

About Us — Chilean Copper Company

Hot Chili is a copper company listed on the Australian Stock Exchange (HCH:ASX). Our focus is copper exploration and development in Chile’s Atacama Region, and we aim to be one of the largest copper companies operating in the area.

Our Mission

Hot Chili has three key high-grade copper projects—Cortadera, Productora, and El Fuego—all located in close proximity to one another. In developing these projects, our copper mining company seeks to create a new Chilean mining hub called Costa Fuego. We believe this kind of project portfolio is special among junior copper mining companies.

Current Projects

The centerpiece of our copper company’s ambitious discovery program is our Cortadera copper-gold project. In addition to Cortadera, our Productora copper-gold project entered production in 2020 through a partnership agreement with Chilean government-owned ENAMI, and our El Fuego project encompasses two historic high-grade copper mines.

Cortadera

Until February of 2019, when Hot Chili entered into an agreement to acquire a 100 percent interest, Cortadera was privately owned and little was publicly known about the discovery. Since acquiring Cortadera, our Chile copper company has engaged in an aggressive discovery program. Our drill results already include six world-class copper-gold intersections in a single zone of mineralization. We believe that Cortadera may be one of the most signficant copper discoveries of the last decade.

Cortadera’s Maiden Mineral Resource (+0.25% CuEq) of 451Mt at 0.46% copper equivalent (CuEq) takes the total Mineral Resource estimate for Costa Fuego to 724Mt at 0.48% CuEq for 2.9Mt copper, 2.7Moz gold, 9.9Moz Silver and 64kt molybdenum.The Cortadera Maiden Mineral Resource includes a higher grade component (+0.6% CuEq) of 104Mt at 0.74% CuEq.

Productora

Productora is a large-scale, advanced stage copper-gold project. To date, there has been approximately US$100 million of investment at Productora, and the project is estimated to have probable reserves of 166.9 million tonnes grading 0.43% Cu, 0.09g/t Au and 138 ppm Mo. With our ongoing development of Productora, along with Cortadera and El Fuego (discussed below), Hot Chili aims to be one of the top copper mining companies in the area.

El Fuego

Hot Chili has a majority interest in the El Fuego copper project. The property encompasses two historic underground mines—San Antonio and Valentina. At one time, these were two of the highest grade copper mines in the region. Both sites, however, were under private ownership for 50+ years, and modern exploration of these copper companies was minimal.

Our Team

Our executives, directors, and technical staff are based in Australia and Chile. Together, they have many decades of experience in the copper mining industry, particularly in Chile and Latin America. They are backed by the support of an impressive consulting and advisory team, which includes the likes of Dr. Steve Garwin, a copper and gold porphyry expert who played an instrumental role in identifying the potential for a major copper-gold discovery at Cortadera, and whom is leading the exploration efforts at our Chile copper projects.

About Hot Chili Limited

Hot Chili (HCH) is an ASX-listed Australian mineral exploration company, well advanced in developing its portfolio of copper projects on the coastal range in Region III, Chile.
