Coda Minerals looks set to press the go button on plans to mine its Elizabeth Creek copper-cobalt project in South Australia after positive results from its recently completed scoping study on the operation. The study has revealed a net revenue of more than $5.7 billion over an estimated 14-year mine life at a pre-tax internal rate of return of 26.5 per cent.

Coda Minerals has completed four Ambient Noise Tomography surveys across key prospects at its Elizabeth Creek copper project in South Australia with early results highlighting new areas of interest. The surveys are designed to use an advanced passive seismic technique to produce a detailed sub-surface velocity map to assist in the identification of iron-oxide copper gold mineralisation close to the company's Emmie deposits.

Coda Minerals is putting the finishing touches on a scoping study for its Elizabeth Creek copper project in South Australia with final test work currently underway before the report's expected release in April. The company says it has now completed work to assess all material inputs into the pending study up to the point of production of a copper-cobalt concentrate from a centrally located on-site flotation plant.

Coda Minerals has deployed cutting-edge technology at its Emmie Bluff iron oxide-copper-gold and copper-cobalt deposit as it aims to define thickness and structure of the mineralisation at the SA site. The company has commenced an Ambient Noise Tomography survey that is designed to use an advanced passive seismic technique to produce a detailed sub-surface velocity map to assist in the identification of IOCG mineralisation close to Emmie deposits.

With a positive mining study Coda Minerals has unveiled a viable pathway to steady-state production of 2.5 million tonnes per annum at the company's Elizabeth Creek copper project in South Australia. The mining assessment forms part of a broader scoping study and is centred around underground mining of the project's cornerstone Emmie Bluff copper-cobalt deposit whilst also proposing open pit extraction at satellite deposits to rapidly achieve nameplate production.

Coda Minerals has launched a 30-hole, 3000m RC drill campaign at its Cameron River copper-gold project near Mt Isa in Queensland's north. The company will use the probe to test a suite of promising geochemical and induced polarised targets at the site and plans to have the program completed in about 3 weeks.

Coda Minerals says stage 1 drilling at its Emmie iron oxide-copper-gold deposit in South Australia has enhanced geological understanding of the site and highlighted strong targets for further exploration. The company recently received the finals assays from the successful 23,000m drill campaign that identified three major conduits at the site including two geochemically and geologically distinct bornite zones.

Coda Minerals has been given the green light to begin drilling at its highly prospective Cameron River copper-gold project near Mt Isa with final environmental approvals received from the Queensland Government. The company says the 30-hole RC drill campaign will kick off on August 23 and test a number of geochemical and induced polarisation survey targets.

Coda Minerals has received encouraging metallurgical test results showing exceptional recoveries above 99 per cent from a concentrate sample taken at its Emmie Bluff copper-cobalt deposit in South Australia. The company says the results show the potential for lower-cost on-site production of high-value goods from Coda's Elizabeth Creek copper project, including the Emmie deposit, that can be sold into the electric vehicle and battery markets.

Coda Minerals has confirmed a new geologically distinct bornite zone in the southern part of its Emmie iron oxide-copper-gold prospect in South Australia. The company's assay results include a best intercept of 16m at 2.66 per cent copper and 37.5 grams per tonne silver from 812m at the site that forms part of its Elizabeth Creek copper project.

Coda Minerals has identified multiple targets including outstanding anomalies from induced polarisation surveys at its Cameron River copper-gold project in north Queensland, with drilling set for August. The drilling program will target coincident geophysical and geochemical targets including a shallow chargeability anomaly at the site's Rebound prospect.

Coda Minerals has extended its Emmie iron oxide-copper-gold deposit within its Elizabeth Creek copper project in South Australia by more than 900m — increasing its mineralised target zone. A recent surface step-out drill hole encountered multiple zones of visible copper sulphide mineralisation to the north of the Emmie IOCG geophysical anomaly, providing evidence the deposit contains multiple conduit zones.

Coda Minerals is finding further potential at its flagship Elizabeth Creek copper project in SA's world-class Gawler Craton. The latest drill hole intersected a distinct copper-rich zone, indicating a possible southeast expansion of the interpreted IOCG mineralisation. It says a geologically distinct, copper-rich ‘bornite' dominated zone was intercepted and an independent re-evaluation of the emerging area demonstrates its potential for more.

180 pages of bidder's and target's statements are on the way out to Torrens Mining and Coda Minerals shareholders as the two companies try to bring the exciting Elizabeth Creek copper cobalt project in South Australia under one roof in a $23 million merger proposal. The Emmie Bluff discovery is amongst the largest known sediment-hosted copper deposits in Australia.

Mineral exploration company, Coda Minerals has delivered more cracking copper hits at its exciting Emmie Bluff Deeps IOCG-style copper discovery in South Australia. New intercepts from one hole returned two mineralised intervals of 26.9m grading 1.95 per cent copper from 803.5m and 41.8m going 1.21 per cent copper from 911.5m to grow the high-grade bornite zone at the prospect.

In the lead up to Christmas, Coda Minerals has delivered a gift of its own – a maiden mineral resource for the Emmie Bluff Copper-Cobalt deposit at its Elizabeth Creek project in South Australia. The company calculated a resource of 43 million tonnes going at 1.3 per cent copper, 470 ppm cobalt and 11 g/t silver cementing its position amongst the largest known sediment hosted copper deposits in Australia.

Coda Minerals has snared its widest yet copper-sulphide intercept at its Emmie Bluff Deeps prospect that returned a whopping 83m of chalcopyrite dominated mineralisation. The width of the intercept along with the identification of the first material molybedenum mineralisation logged at Emmie Bluff Deeps suggests the company is on the brink of discovering the core of the deposit and its mineralising structure.

Things are starting to get interesting for Coda Minerals at its recent Emmie Bluff Deeps IOCG style copper discovery in South Australia where a maiden drill hole into a targeted gravity anomaly hit 28m at 1.21 per cent copper. Four newly drilled holes have now intercepted thick intervals of copper-bearing sulphides that will likely extend the mineralised envelope in three directions.

ASX-listed Coda Minerals is narrowing in on a highly prospective 2km long copper-gold mineralised corridor at its Cameron River project near Mt Isa in Queensland. Systematic rock chip sampling over the Copper Weed and Rebound prospect areas have returned a bevy of high-grade results including 22.2 per cent copper and 2.74 g/t gold along with identifying several new targets.

Coda Minerals has increased the size of its famed Emmie Bluff copper gold discovery in South Australia, with additional thicker zones of copper sulphide mineralisation intersected in the eight diamond drill holes completed to date. Visual logging of core has shown three holes hit the jackpot as they intersected the bornite-rich core of the mineralisation, which is thicker than seen in previous holes.

ASX-listed Coda Minerals continues to ring the till with a bevy of high-grade copper and gold intercepts at its Emmie Bluff Deeps deposit, which is located 100km south of Olympic Dam in South Australia. Latest numbers include 24 metres at 2.2 per cent copper, 0.3g/t gold and 8.9g/t silver. Peak grades of 15.3 per cent copper and 4.49 g/t gold confirm the deposit's potential to host a large-scale, vertical mineralised structure of substantial thickness, according to Coda.

Coda Minerals has backed up its high-profile Emmie Bluff IOCG discovery in South Australia's revered Gawler Craton with recent drilling returning copper mineralisation over more than 35 metres width including an impressive 28.14m at 1.21 per cent copper, 0.37 grams per tonne gold and 2.3 g/t silver from 810.79m down-hole. The company says individual assays kick as high as 5.39 per cent copper within the sulphide zone.

ASX-listed Coda Minerals says it is unlocking the potential of its newly discovered Emmie Bluff IOCG deposit in South Australia's Gawler Craton, with new directional diamond drilling intersecting copper sulphide zones broadly comparable to the recently announced discovery hole. The new intercepts are reportedly dominated by high-tenor copper sulphides including bornite and covellite suggesting Coda is closing in on a large-scale mineralised structure.

Coda Minerals has stepped up exploration at its Emmie Bluff IOCG discovery in South Australia, with drilling now underway to further test the mineral-rich body, located 450 kilometres north-west of Adelaide. The company has now kicked off drilling of a series of daughter holes that splay off the original diamond drill hole to test the mineralisation at various levels within the stratigraphy.

Coda Minerals looks to have unearthed a new IOCG discovery at Emmie Bluff in South Australia. The company's maiden drill hole has bulls-eyed over 200 metres of intense hematitic and sulphidic alteration suggesting that Coda may now be probing a massive mineralised system, sending the company's share price skyrocketing, up by more than 235 per cent in daily trade.

Coda Minerals has landed a $75,000 grant from the South Australia Government, which may prove timely as it ramps up exploration at its Elizabeth Creek project in the state's Olympic Dam copper province. Coda's new funding comes courtesy of the Accelerated Discovery Initiative and will be used for an airborne electromagnetic survey over its Emmie Bluff copper discovery.

Coda Minerals has completed its earn in over the Elizabeth Creek JV in SA after spending over $8.6 million on exploration since the farm-in agreement with Torrens Mining was consummated in 2017. Coda now speaks for 70 per cent of the rapidly developing copper project where it is eyeing an extensive new resource at the Emmie Bluff discovery.

Coda Minerals continues to receive solid results from its copper discovery at Emmie Bluff in SA including 7.58 metres at 1.51, however it is now casting its eye further afield as it looks to build a pipeline of copper projects in Australia, with the company picking up the interesting looking Cameron River copper project near Mt Isa in Queensland.

Coda Minerals has the bit between its teeth at its Emmie Bluff copper project, having completed a 17-hole diamond drilling program across the South Australian target. The drill program completes a significant milestone in the company's advance towards declaring a maiden JORC resource in the coming months. It is now logging and sampling almost 8,000m of drill core while awaiting the results from the assay labs.

Coda Minerals continues to put runs on the board in South Australia, with exploration at its Emmie Bluff copper discovery coming up trumps. Recent drilling has returned assays of 2.05m at 4.09 per cent copper equivalent from 408.95m and 3.49m at 2.22 per cent copper equivalent from 454.2m, with the deposit now extending along 3km of strike.
