White Cliff Minerals (ASX:WCN) reports new copper zone at Rae adjacent to Teshierpi Fault

White Cliff Minerals has reported further assay results from its Rae Copper Project in Nunavut, Canada, with drilling at Danvers confirming a new copper zone outside the main Teshierpi Fault Zone.

The results form part of the Company’s 2026 regional drilling program and include high-grade copper intercepts from drillhole DAN26015 alongside additional step-out drilling across the broader Danvers area.

Highlights

• DAN26015 returned 79.24m @ 1.59% Cu from 67.06m, including 24.38m @ 3.05% Cu from 120.4m
• New copper zone confirmed outside the main Teshierpi Fault Zone
• Copper mineralised footprint now exceeds 3.1km strike length based on 2026 assay results
• Visible copper sulphides observed over more than 6km strike length across the Teshierpi Fault Zone system
• DAN26024 returned >67m of combined copper sulphides located 686m northeast of DAN26020
• DAN26020 extended mineralisation 215m southwest from Danvers 1 drilling
• DAN26022 returned 47.55m of copper sulphides located 606m northwest of DAN25001
• Second diamond drill rig mobilised to follow up DAN26012 which returned 19.81m @ 6.64% Cu

White Cliff Minerals has reported assay results from drillhole DAN26015 as part of its 2026 regional drilling program at the Rae Copper Project in Nunavut, Canada.

The hole returned 79.24m @ 1.59% Cu from 67.06m, including 24.38m @ 3.05% Cu from 120.4m, and is reported as a new copper zone outside the main Teshierpi Fault Zone.

The Company reports that 2026 assay results confirm a copper mineralised footprint exceeding 3.1km in strike length, and also reports visible copper sulphides observed over more than 6km of strike length across the Teshierpi Fault Zone system.

At Danvers 1, drillhole DAN26020 extended mineralisation 215m southwest from previous drilling, while DAN26024 returned more than 67m of combined copper sulphides and is located 686m northeast of DAN26020.

Drillhole DAN26022 returned 47.55m of copper sulphides and is located 606m northwest of DAN25001, and a second diamond drill rig has been mobilised to follow up results from DAN26012, which returned 19.81m @ 6.64% Cu.

White Cliff Minerals Managing Director Troy Whittaker said:

“DAN26015 is an important result for White Cliff, confirming another high-grade copper discovery outside the main Teshierpi Fault Zone and demonstrating that mineralisation is not confined to a single structure.”

The 2026 drilling program at Danvers continues to generate assay results from multiple drillholes across the Teshierpi Fault Zone and adjacent areas, including DAN26015, DAN26020, DAN26022 and DAN26024.

Visible sulphide observations and assay data continue to be reported from widely spaced drilling across the project area.

The Company has also commenced follow-up diamond drilling activities targeting results from DAN26012 as part of the ongoing program.

Additional drilling is expected to continue to test both extensions of known mineralisation and newly identified zones within the broader Danvers corridor.
