Canterra Minerals has released significant results from its summer drill program at the Lundberg Deposit located in Newfoundland. The highlights include drill hole H-26-3568, which intersected 144.0 meters of mineralisation averaging 0.75% copper equivalent (CuEq) starting from a depth of 64.0 meters. Among these results, a 76.0-meter section averaged 1.00% CuEq, indicating a substantial grade of mineralisation. Additionally, a 18.0-meter section of the same hole showed an even higher concentration averaging 1.56% CuEq.

The mineralisation included various metals, with a breakdown of 0.26% copper, 1.32% zinc, 0.73% lead, 2.6 grams per ton of silver, and 0.04 grams per ton of gold. These results highlight the potential of the Lundberg Deposit and contribute to Canterra's ongoing assessments of its resources and mining capabilities. As the company continues its exploration efforts, further results are anticipated to provide additional insights into the deposit's overall viability and the future of its mining activities in the region.

Canterra's findings not only reflect the company's ongoing commitment to resource development but also shine a light on Newfoundland's mineral exploration landscape, which has seen increased interest from several mining companies in recent years due to its rich mineral resources and favorable exploration conditions.
