(CSE: FDC) (FSE: 2FA) (OTCQB: FDCPY) ("Faraday" or "the Company") is pleased to announce the results of the third hole of the Company's maiden drill program at its Copper Creek Property (the "Property") located in Arizona.
Drill hole CU23-003 was drilled to a depth of 440 metres and intersected a broad zone of copper-gold mineralization, including:
- 117 metres of 1.05% copper equivalent ("CuEq") from 180 metres to 297 metres, including:
- 54 metres of 2.40% CuEq from 198 metres to 252 metres, including:

- and 1 metre of 1.10% CuEq from 417 metres to 418 metres.
The results from CU23-003 are significant as they extend the known copper-gold mineralization at Copper Creek to the south and indicate the potential for a large-scale copper-gold system on the Property.
Faraday's President and CEO, Shawn Khunkhun, stated: "We are very encouraged by the results of the third drill hole from our maiden drilling program at Copper Creek. The broad zone of copper-gold mineralization intersected in CU23-003 demonstrates the potential for a large-scale copper-gold system on the Property and we are eager to receive the results from the remaining holes of the program."
The Company is fully funded for the remaining exploration program at Copper Creek, which includes an additional 1,500 metres of drilling. The program is expected to be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2023.
