Algo Grande Copper Initiates New Programs Ahead of Phase II Drilling in Mexico

Algo Grande Copper Corp. has initiated advanced surface and geophysical programs at its Adelita copper prospect in Mexico. The company aims to refine drill targets in preparation for its Phase II drilling program, set to commence in the second quarter of 2026.

The exploration campaign includes a high-resolution LiDAR survey across the entire Adelita property, a drone-based magnetic survey, and a systematic geochemical soil sampling program. The LiDAR survey is designed to identify structural features and alteration zones, while the magnetic survey will focus on mapping magnetite-rich skarn bodies and intrusive contacts. Geochemical soil sampling will be concentrated in a newly identified area within the Cerro Grande zone, where significant mineralized samples have been found.

"Following the success of our maiden drill program, our focus is now on systematically scaling the Adelita system," said Enrico Gay, CEO of Algo Grande. He emphasized the importance of the magnetic survey for tracking magnetite-rich skarn horizons and the role of drones in identifying more precise targets. The LiDAR survey, he noted, supports the company's interpretation of a structurally controlled mineralization system.

The collected data will be integrated into the company's 3D geological and machine learning targeting models to optimize drill hole placement. The objective is to maximize discovery potential and expand the known footprint of mineralization across the district-scale Adelita property. The company has also entered into an investor relations agreement with Rayleigh Capital Ltd. for services commencing in March 2026.
