Initial exploration comprised trenching, grab and chip sampling, mapping, geophysical surveys and geochemical work.
Intrepid said: “The Sara Claim Group is viewed as a tertiary-aged low-sulfidation system with historical work focused primarily on gold.”
Located 15 miles east of Tombstone, the Corral Copper Project is a district-scale advanced exploration and development opportunity in Cochise County.
