Summary
Variscan Mines Limited announced the commencement of its maiden drilling programme at the Guajaraz Zinc Project in the Central Zone of the Iberian Massif, Spain. The programme aims to test high-priority zinc-polymetallic targets with a five-hole diamond drilling strategy. The Guajaraz project complements Variscan's flagship Novales-Udias zinc project in Cantabria, showcasing its extensive base-metal exploration portfolio. The drilling is designed to explore deeper carbonate-hosted replacement-type zinc mineralisation and unexploited structures. This development is aligned with the company's strategic efforts to secure a three-year extension on its tenement and highlights Variscan's robust exploration momentum supported by recent capital raising activities.
