Latin Metals Inc. (
“Latin Metals”
or the
“Company”) -
(TSXV: LMS)
(OTCQB: LMSQF) provides an update on
exploration at the Company’s 100%-owned Lacsha copper property
(“
Lacsha” or the “
Project”)
located in the Peruvian Coastal Copper Belt. Follow up results
confirm a second copper-molybdenum anomaly over an area of 1.5km by
1.0km (“
Lacsha South”) (
Figure
1), adding to the Lacsha North anomaly delineated by
previous work (previous news release NR21-05, May 27, 2021).
Lacsha Talus Sampling
Exploration within the 4,000-hectare Project has
included property-wide rock sampling and stream sediment sampling,
as well as results from 28 talus samples defining Lacsha North.
Recently received analysis from 84 additional
talus samples have delineated a larger 1.5km by 1.0km area of
anomalous copper and molybdenum. Results defining Lacsha South
include copper ranging from 441 to 2,820 ppm and molybdenum ranging
from 4.8 to 192.5 ppm (Figure 1). The anomaly is
open to the south. At both Lacsha North and South, evidence of
porphyry copper mineralization is observed as chlorite, secondary
biotite and sericitic alteration in porphyritic rocks, locally
associated with disseminated chalcopyrite.

anomalies defined by recent talus sampling, location of high
priority anomalies, and sampling in progress to the

“Staking of the Lacsha Project
less than one year ago and forging of agreements with local
communities was followed by a systematic program of mapping and
geochemical sampling,” stated Keith Henderson, the Company’s
President and CEO. “We have been successful in delineating two
large copper porphyry targets over a short time frame, and we are
reaching the final stages of drill target definition.”
Next Steps
Follow-up sampling has begun to continue
sampling to the south, where the Lacsha South anomaly remains open
for expansion. On receipt of results, the total extents of
geochemical anomalies at Lacsha North and South will be fully
defined, and geophysical surveys will commence with the aim of
defining drill targets. On completion of drill permitting, the
Company intends to secure a partner to fund drill testing of the
targets.
Coastal Copper Belt
The Coastal Copper Belt in Peru is a Cretaceous
belt hosting a variety of deposit types including porphyry,
epithermal, VMS and IOCG. Latin Metals’ 100%-owned Lacsha
copper-molybdenum and Auquis copper-gold projects are both located
in the northern Lima-Ica portion of the coastal belt .
The Lacsha Project is located approximately 110 km by road from
Lima, 40 km from the coast, and is accessible year-round by paved
road.
QA/QC
The work program at Lacsha was designed and is
supervised by Eduardo Leon, the Company's Exploration Manager, who
is responsible for all aspects of the work, including the quality
control/quality assurance program, Standard samples has been
including in every shipment.
On-site personnel at the project rigorously
collect and track samples which are then security sealed and
shipped to ALS laboratory in Lima. Samples used for the results
described herein are prepared and analyzed by multi-element
analysis using an inductively coupled mass spectrometer in
compliance with industry standards.
