ZEUS: Poised for Major Discoveries in Idaho New Copper Area Zeus North America Mining Corp. (Ticker: ZEUS.c or ZUUZF for U.S. investors) is strategically positioned to capitalize on the burgeoning demand for two of the most sought-after metals driving today's economy: silver and copper. With a focus on unlocking the hidden potential beneath Idaho's silver-rich terrain, Zeus is also setting its sights on a newly identified copper porphyry system, marking a significant expansion of its exploration efforts.
At the heart of Zeus's operations is the flagship Cuddy Mountain Property, located in Washington County, Idaho, just a 2.5-hour drive northwest of Boise. This property, covering approximately 1,640 acres, is adjacent to the recently discovered Leviathan Copper Porphyry on Hercules Silver's (TSXV: BIG) property.
The discovery of this significant copper deposit has sparked a district-scale staking rush, with major players like Barrick Gold and Rio Tinto entering the area, underscoring the region's immense potential.
Zeus's Cuddy Mountain Property shares many geological similarities with the adjacent Hercules Silver property, both located along the Bayhorse Thrust Fault. This major structural corridor hosts a range of historical silver occurrences and small-scale mines.
The historical work at Cuddy Mountain includes the Lead Zone Mine, which produced silver and lead in the 1950s, and the Edna May Mine, where underground drilling in 1979 intersected notable silver mineralization.
The recent developments at Cuddy Mountain are particularly promising. Zeus has contracted Dias Geophysical Ltd. to conduct a comprehensive 3D-DCIP Induced Polarization (IP) and Resistivity Survey across the property. This survey aims to identify high-priority drill targets, building on the success of similar exploration techniques used by Hercules Silver.
Zeus's exploration plans for 2024 are ambitious, with soil sampling, mapping, prospecting, and rock grab sampling all on the agenda. The company is leveraging modern exploration technologies to elevate its operations, moving beyond traditional silver extraction to uncover the significant copper porphyry system beneath the surface.
As Zeus North America Mining Corp. continues to explore and develop its properties, the company is well-positioned to contribute to the growing demand for silver and copper, two metals that are increasingly critical to the global economy.
