TORONTO, Jan. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Collective Mining Ltd. (NYSE: CNL) (TSX: CNL) ("Collective" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has commenced drilling at the San Antonio Project ("San Antonio"), located in Caldas, Colombia. The Company plans to drill a minimum of 2,500 metres and test three large gold-copper porphyry targets located within a well-defined 2.5-kilometer mineralized corridor. The Company currently has five drill rigs operating as part of its fully funded 60,000-metre drill program for 2025. Two additional rigs have been contracted, with drilling anticipated to begin in late January and February, respectively. Ari Sussman, Executive Chairman commented: "Shortly after going public in 2021, the Company announced a bonafide grassroots discovery at the San Antonio Project by drilling two very high-risk holes on the same section line at different dips into the Pound target with each hole cutting more than 700 meters of mineralization from surface. Immediately thereafter, our attention shifted to the Guayabales Project, leading to the discovery of the Apollo system, which has remained our chief focus ever since. With a strong treasury and an expanded operating team in place today, we are coming full circle and revisiting San Antonio. Being in Colombia this week and visiting the San Antonio Project, I have been convinced by our team that we have a legitimate chance of finding a major gold-copper porphyry system. The size of the alteration zone and abundance of high-grade mineralization on surface is impressive. With drilling underway, we look forward to receiving assay results and using the data to vector towards the mineralized fluid source of what is clearly an exceptionally large system."
