This relationship is guiding the evaluation of regional geophysical and geochemical assessments to identify extensions of the La Verde system and new porphyry targets within the broader magnetic destruction zone (Figure 6).<\/p>\n<p>Regulatory applications for further drill access at La Verde are advancing, with phase-two drilling (RC and diamond drilling) planned to commence once approvals are received.<\/p>\n<p>The Company looks forward to providing further updates, including advancements in exploration understanding of La Verde\u2019s growth potential, as well as various development study activities related to the current Pre-Feasibility Study optimisation phase for its Costa Fuego and Huasco Water projects.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Figure 1.
