The JEBILET EST Project

The recent work has identified several new mineralised zones, including a 9.25 % Cu sample returned from a previously untested area, and reconfirmed the strong grades reported from earlier work by the Company.

Highlights:

• Additional mineralised quartz-carbonate vein targets identified: Up to 9.25 % Cu returned from isolated vein outcrops within an area of thin soil cover. Up to 2.09 % Cu and 0.88 % Cu from newly identified vein outcrops traced discontinuously over a 450 m strike length. 
• Priority target vein zone on the western licence has strike length extended by 250 m to 3.25 km. Up to 0.56 % Cu from recent sampling and up to 4.43 % Cu from previous sampling. Multiple veins over an apparent surface width of up to 120 m outcropping in metasediments or within surrounding soil cover adjacent to the main vein zone.
• GEM Systems Overhauser Magnetometer acquired by Aterian plc. Ground magnetics survey to be completed over Jebilet Est priority targets in Q4 2024. Survey to be completed by the Company’s in-house, internationally experienced team.

Charles Bray, Chairman of Aterian, commented: “We are excited to announce further encouraging copper results obtained from recent fieldwork at Jebilet Est, including identifying quartz-carbonate vein targets below a thin soil cover. The initial indications suggest a potentially broad, up to 120 m wide, package of quartz-carbonate veins and alteration zones within Jebilet Est.“
