SOLARIS REPORTS 96M OF 0.59% CUEQ FROM NEAR SURFACE WITHIN 144M OF 0.50% CUEQ AND 148M OF 0.52% CUEQ IN FIRST TWO RECONNAISSANCE HOLES AT PATRIMONIO

Solaris Resources Inc. has released assay results from the first two reconnaissance drill holes at the Patrimonio target confirming a significant new discovery, southwest of Central, on the Warintza project in southeastern Ecuador.

Highlights

Patrimonio was discovered in June, 2023, as part of a program of mapping and sampling in an area located approximately 0.5 kilometre southwest of Warintza Central. The first two reconnaissance drill holes confirm the discovery of a significant new copper deposit. The drilling also revealed a new style of what appears to be skarn mineralization developed within carbonate-rich volcanic sequences for which the source has not yet been determined.

• SLSP-01 was drilled northwest and returned 50 metres of 0.75 per cent copper equivalent or 96 m of 0.59 per cent CuEq within a broader interval of 144 m of 0.50 per cent CuEq from surface before entering the weakly mineralized dacite porphyry stock.
• SLSP-02 was drilled west from the same platform and returned 148 m of 0.52 per cent CuEq within a broader interval of 276 m of 0.40 per cent CuEq from near surface before the hole was terminated in the porphyry.
• Two distinct phases of mineralization are evident: the first occurs in the upper portion of the holes with strong epidote-magnetite (skarn) alteration and secondary biotite (potassic) alteration in a sequence of volcanics; the second is associated with a later dacite porphyry altered by quartz-sericite-pyrite alteration which cuts the mineralization in the volcanics above.
• Observations from drill core suggest the epidote-magnetite (skarn) mineralization was derived from a different and, as yet, unidentified source than the dacite porphyry, opening up intriguing potential for the discovery of additional skarn mineralization and/or its intrusive source within the Patrimonio anomaly.
• The dacite porphyry-related late-stage quartz-sericite-pyrite alteration contains up to 10 per cent sulphides dominated by pyrite (over chalcopyrite) and leaves open the target setting documented in other porphyries within the Warintza cluster where favourable sulphide zonation associated with early alteration phases is characterized by chalcopyrite dominant over pyrite.
• Detailed mapping and sampling are under way to further develop the model of this mineral system and particularly to establish vectors for skarn and alteration zonation and prioritize drill locations under construction. The copper mineralization remains open to the northwest, south and west while abutting a weakly mineralized quartz-monzodiorite porphyry to the northeast.
• Patrimonio is defined by an elongated north-south molybdenum soil anomaly measuring 1.5 km by 0.5 km enveloped by a copper soil anomaly extending west, with outcropping porphyry displaying pervasive alteration and veining, located on the western side of an interpreted major north-south fault adjacent to Warintza Central.

Technical information and quality assurance/quality control

Sample assay results have been independently monitored through a quality assurance/quality control program that includes the insertion of blind certified reference materials (standards), blanks and field duplicate samples. Logging and sampling are completed at a secured company facility located in Quito, Ecuador. Drill core is cut in half on site and samples are securely transported to ALS Labs in Quito. Sample pulps are sent to ALS Labs in Lima, Peru, and Vancouver, Canada, for analysis. Total copper and molybdenum contents are determined by four-acid digestion with atomic absorption spectroscopy finish. Gold is determined by fire assay of a 30-gram charge. In addition, selected pulp check samples are sent to Bureau Veritas lab in Lima, Peru. Both ALS Labs and Bureau Veritas lab are independent of Solaris. Solaris is not aware of any drilling, sampling, recovery or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data referred to herein. Details on the surface sampling conducted at the project are set out in the technical report titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report for the Warintza Project, Ecuador" with an effective date of April 1, 2022, prepared by Mario E. Rossi and available on the company's SEDAR profile and website. The drill hole data have been verified by Jorge Fierro, MSc, DIC, PG, using data validation and quality assurance procedures under high industry standards.
