en.Wedoany.com Reported - Canadian mineral exploration company Leviathan Metals (TSX-V:LVX) has initiated a 10,000-meter diamond core drilling program at the Central Project in the Kalahari Copper Belt, Botswana. The drilling targets potential sediment-hosted copper mineralization of a type and scale similar to that seen at MMG's (HKG:1208) adjacent Khoemacau mine. Based on recent airborne electromagnetic survey data and high-resolution ground magnetic surveys completed in 2023-24, the company has interpreted over 20 kilometers of favorable contact zones at the Central Project.

Chief Operating Officer Jeremy Crozier stated that the program's budget enables the company to conduct mine-scale operations, casting a wide net around the full extent of the Central Project's dome structure. Crozier said the company is excited to begin drilling this exceptional target, aiming to demonstrate the potential for more Khoemacau-style mineralization within the Central Project. The drilling is being carried out by Mitchell Drilling International using a Sandvik DE710 diamond drill rig. The Central Project exhibits geological characteristics similar to Khoemacau, which Leviathan says positions the area as a potential tier-one copper discovery. Leviathan Metals is a Canada-based mineral exploration company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSX-V) and in Germany.
