Oracle Power PLC (AIM:ORCP), an international project developer, is pleased to announce that a ground based gravity survey has been completed at the Blue Rock Valley Copper and Silver Project (the "Project"), located in the Ashburton Basin in the northwest region of Western Australia.

The gravity survey covered the central portion of outcrop with known copper mineralisation and Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic (VTEM) anomalies, Figures 3-5. The survey has identified multiple gravity highs along the Blue Rock Valley trend for potential drilling, to test for further potential copper mineralisation. The weaker response in the gravity data where previous drilling and samples were taken is assumed to be a result of this portion of the copper mineralisation being mined in the 1960s. The Company is now assessing whether to undertake geochemical sampling or look to drill test targets and a further announcement will be made in due course.

Highlights:

  • Blue Rock Valley high-grade rock chip and grab samples as announced on 12 July 2024 grading:

o 18.21 % Copper, OBR001

o 12.34 % Copper, OBR002 (refer to Figure 1)

o 25.70 % Copper, OBR003

o 8.56 % Copper, OBR004

o 10.08 % Copper, OBR005

  • Samples confirmed the historical tenure of copper mineralisation.
  • A ground gravity survey has now been completed over copper mineralisation and VTEM anomalies.
  • Multiple targets have been identified by the ground gravity survey for follow up work along the Blue Rock Valley trend of approximately2km of strike the survey covered.

Naheed Memon, CEO of Oracle, commented: "I am very excited to see positive results from the gravity survey and announce that we have gravity anomalies to follow up along Blue Rock Valley trend with a strike of approximately 2km. There are also gravity anomalies associated with the VTEM anomalies. The Company will now consider whether to undertake geochemical sampling or look to drill test targets."
