Grafton Resources Inc. (CSE: GFT; OTCQB: GFTFF; FSE: K8L0) announced that Expert Geophysics Surveys Inc. has commenced an 80 line-kilometre mobile magnetotelluric (MobileMT) heliborne survey at the Alicahue Gold-Copper Project in Valparaiso, Chile. The survey is expected to cover the entire property within one day, with interpreted results anticipated in March 2026.
MobileMT is a leading geophysical technology that aids in identifying subsurface geologic structures, alteration halos, and contrasting lithologies. The survey will also collect complementary VLF-EM data, providing near-surface electromagnetic information to enhance resolution of shallow features. Combining these methods is expected to identify deep-seated faults, lithological contacts, and structures controlling mineral systems from surface to depths of approximately 1 km to 2 km, depending on local geology conductivity.
Campbell Smyth, Chairman of Grafton Resources, commented: "We expect the MobileMT data will provide a three-dimensional image of the Alicahue Project area. We hope the survey will assist us in tracing the outline of a possible porphyry centre in the southeast concession and help vector towards the origin of the IOCG vein systems and possible feeder zones to gold and copper vein mineralization mapped in the area."
The Alicahue Project, located in the Valparaiso region, is prospective for gold and copper mineralization. The survey results will be used to refine drill targets and advance the project. Grafton Resources is a Canadian exploration company focused on discovering and developing mineral assets in the Americas, listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) and OTCQB.
