Major Copper Discovery Keeps Growing: 1.2km Strike & 80% Still to Drill | Hercules Metals with Chris Paul

In this interview, Chris Paul, CEO & Director of Hercules Metals Corp. (TSXV: BIG) (OTCQB: BADEF) (FSE: 8Q7), outlines the company’s strategic pivot and recent exploration success.

Paul begins by highlighting the company’s transformation from silver exploration to copper following their significant porphyry discovery in Idaho. This discovery proved compelling enough to attract investment from major player Barrick Gold, validating the project’s potential.

He details their recent drilling successes, including promising step-out results and increasing grades at depth. Paul emphasizes their improved drilling efficiency and strong financial position, with approximately $13 million in treasury to fund continued exploration.

Notably, only 20% of their target area has been explored to date, with multiple porphyry centers already identified. This suggests significant potential for further discoveries and resource expansion.

Hercules is advancing their project through continued drilling, pursuing either high-grade underground potential or near-surface open-pit scenarios.
