Hannan Receives Governmental Approval for Drill Pad Construction at the Belen Prospect, Valiente Project, Peru
Vancouver, Canada, 17.04.2025 (PresseBox) - Hannan Metals Limited ("Hannan" or the "Company") (TSXV: HAN) (OTCPK: HANNF) - https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/hannan-metals-ltd/ - is pleased to announce it has commenced site access preparation at its Belen prospect at the Company's 100%-owned Valiente copper-gold project in Peru (Figure 1). This follows the receipt of the Authorization for
Highlights:
➢ Access preparation work has begun at the Belen prospect following receipt of the Authorization for
Exploration Activities permit
➢ Drill contract expected to be signed within the next week
➢ Drilling to commence in early May 2025 during the start of the dry season
➢ Program will utilize up to 40 permitted platforms to test three key prospects (Figure 2):
o Ricardo Herrera copper-gold porphyry (15 platforms)
o Vista Alegre epithermal gold target (12 platforms)
o Sortilegio copper-gold porphyry (13 platforms)
Exploration Activities permit from the Ministry of Mines (MINEM) announced in February 2025.
Michael Hudson, Executive Chairman and CEO, states: “The commencement of access preparation marks a major milestone for Hannan as we prepare to launch our maiden drill program at Belen. This is the culmination of our systematic mineral prospecting approach since discovering this new copper-gold belt in 2021. With all necessary permits now in place, we're excited to begin testing the extensive porphyry copper-gold and epithermal gold mineral systems across Ricardo Herrera, Vista Alegre, and Sortilegio for the first time.
"The drilling preparatory work at Belen is proceeding while we continue prospecting the significant Previsto gold find, located 20 km to the northwest, where we recently identified continuous outcrop of alkalic-type epithermal gold mineralization."
Project Overview
The Belen prospect (Figure 2) is situated within Hannan's Valiente project, which has identified a new Miocene-age porphyry copper-gold belt in Peru's central eastern region. Recent geophysical surveys have defined significant anomalies at all three main targets:
At Ricardo Herrera, a substantial chargeability anomaly extends over 1,000 m by 250 m, coinciding with outcropping porphyry-style copper-gold mineralization within a multi-stage calc-alkaline intrusion. Surface mineralization shows moderate to strong phyllic and intermediate argillic alteration with both magnetite-bearing, quartz-biotite, and quartz-K-feldspar veining (Figure 3).
The Vista Alegre epithermal gold prospect features a 2.4 km long geophysical anomaly with two distinct signatures: a high chargeability-low resistivity zone coinciding with gold-in-soil anomalies up to 0.23 ppm, and high chargeability-high resistivity zones associated with mineralized quartz boulders assaying up to 1.98 g/t Au (Figure 4).
At Sortilegio, a 1.2 km long chargeability anomaly has been identified within an alkalic porphyry system, characterized by zoned and structurally controlled mineralization of shallow gold target and three alkalic Cu-Au target within a 1.2km long trend. The central mineralized zone measures 350 m × 350 m with high-density stockwork veining (Figure 5).
The Belen prospect represents approximately 4% of Hannan's total Valiente landholding, where the Company has identified 18 copper-gold porphyry and epithermal systems across a 140 km x 50 km area in Peru's back-arc region.
