MUNDORO ADVANCES CENTRAL TIMOK PROJECT WITH RECENT SKORUSA EAST DRILLING
Mundoro Capital Inc. has completed a 1,288.1-metre diamond drill program at the Skorusa East target within the Central Timok project, located within the Timok magmatic complex in Serbia. The Central Timok project is part of the previously announced BHP-Mundoro option earn-in agreement1 under which BHP is sole financing all exploration activities.
Teo Dechev, chief executive officer, president and director, stated: "The completion of this initial drill program at Skorusa East marks a steady progression in our 2026 exploration program with BHP. We are encouraged by the data gathered, which aligns with our geological models and provides a clear path for follow-up drilling in the Central Timok project."
Humberto Brockway, director of Exploration, stated: "The alteration profiles observed in these holes confirm that we are exploring the outer and western margins of a porphyry system. The transition from advanced argillic alteration through to phyllic and propylitic zones provides us with consistent vectors. This indicates that the system's core remains untested, and we have a clear target to guide our next phase of drilling."
Highlights:
- The phase I drill program comprised two diamond drill holes totalling 1,288.1 m at the Skorusa East target, which added an additional 288 m in hole 26-SKO-09. Hole 26-SKO-08 was completed at a downhole depth of 499.8 m and hole 26-SKO-09 was completed at a downhole depth of 788.3 m. Downhole geophysics was subsequently completed in both holes.
- Hole 26-SKO-08 intersected a coherent outward alteration profile: advanced argillic alteration with vuggy silica to 65 m, transitioning to phyllic (sericite-pyrite) alteration to 317 m and propylitic (epidote-pyrite) alteration to total depth. This alteration series is consistent with the outer alteration envelope of a porphyry system. Assay results are expected before the end of July, 2026.
- Hole 26-SKO-09 intersected an intense advanced argillic alteration sequence to 430 m depth, comprising kaolinite-pyrite to approximately 80 m and transitioning into an intense quartz-alunite-dickite assemblage with residual quartz and well-developed vuggy and gusano textures to 430 m depth. Below 430 m, alteration grades through phyllic (chlorite-sericite) to propylitic alteration to total depth of 788.3 m, defining the western margin of the interpreted Skorusa East porphyry system. Assay results are expected before the end of July, 2026.
- Together, holes 26-SKO-08 and 26-SKO-09 are interpreted to be intersecting the outer margins of a copper-gold porphyry system, where the potassic core remains untested. The alteration vectors and coincident magnetic and geochemical anomalies support continued drill testing toward the system's inferred centre.
Discussion of results at Skorusa
Skorusa East
Hole 26-SKO-08 (499.8 m) intersected a well-defined outward alteration sequence characteristic of the peripheral zone of a copper-gold porphyry system. Advanced argillic alteration with vuggy silica textures from surface to 65 m transitions downward into a broad phyllic (sericite-pyrite) interval to 317 m, giving way to propylitic (epidote-pyrite) alteration to total depth. The progressive outward zonation -- from advanced argillic through phyllic to propylitic -- is consistent with positioning at the distal margin of the potassic alteration envelope and supports the presence of a more intact potassic core beneath the drilled section.
Hole 26-SKO-09 (788.3 m) intersected an intense advanced argillic alteration system extending to 430 m depth, comprising kaolinite-pyrite to approximately 80 m and transitioning into a very intense quartz-alunite-dickite assemblage with residual quartz and characteristic vuggy and gusano textures. Below 430 m, alteration grades through phyllic (chlorite-sericite) into propylitic alteration at total depth, defining the western margin of the Skorusa East porphyry system.
The phyllic and advanced argillic overprint intersected in 26-SKO-09 is interpreted to be rooted in the centre of the porphyry system, likely positioned beneath a coincident low-magnetic anomaly.
Historic holes at Skorusa East intersected the potassic-altered core with low-density quartz stockwork (fewer than 10 veinlets per metre) and predominantly pyrite over chalcopyrite, suggesting that a more intact porphyry centre within pristine potassic alteration, with higher chalcopyrite-to-pyrite ratios, remains to be tested.
Together, holes 26-SKO-08 and 26-SKO-09 are interpreted to be intersecting the outer margins of a copper-gold porphyry system, where the potassic core is considered to remain untested. The alteration vectors and coincident magnetic and geochemical anomalies support continued drill testing toward the system's inferred centre.
Skorusa West
Of additional potential in the broader Skorusa area, covering a three-kilometre-by-threee-kilometre alteration system, exists the Skorusa West target, where previously drilled holes intersected the potassic-altered core with low-density quartz stockwork (fewer than 10 veinlets per metre) and predominantly pyrite over chalcopyrite. The porphyry suite comprises at least two phases, an intermineral and late-mineral porphyry. The current geological interpretation suggests that the program has drill tested the southeastern limit of the system, leaving the entire remainder open to the northwest.
