Montero finalized a four-hole, 2,025-metre first-pass drill program at its Elvira Gold Project in Chile, targeting high-confidence epithermal-to-porphyry vectors including chargeability and resistivity anomalies. Initial holes will test feeder architecture and deeper sulphide-rich porphyry copper-gold veining within a vertically zoned hydrothermal system.
Montero has finalized an initial four-hole, 2,025-metre drill program at the Elvira Gold Project in northern Chile. This program integrates geological, geochemical and geophysical datasets to prioritize holes that test both the upper epithermal feeder architecture and a deeper sulphide-rich porphyry copper-gold system.
The four planned holes—MON-ELV-01 through MON-ELV-04—will target a >22.5 mV/V chargeability anomaly, a >200 ohm·m resistivity feeder, a copper-bearing trend near surface and a discrete high-sulphidation gold zone. Core logging, portable XRF analysis and ongoing technical assessment during drilling will guide the sequencing and prioritization of subsequent holes.
