Corcel Exploration - Advancing Toward Drilling at the Historic Yuma King Copper-Gold Project in Arizona

In this KE Report Company Update, Jon Ward, CEO of Corcel Exploration (CSE:CRCL - OTCQB:CRLEF), joins us to discuss the company’s next steps at its Yuma King Project in west-central Arizona. Corcel recently released historical drill results as it finalizes targets and prepares for a Phase 1 drill program.

 

Key Discussion Highlights:

• Project Overview:
  The Yuma King Project covers 3,200 hectares of BLM claims in Arizona, hosting the historic Yuma King Mine, which produced nearly 8,000 tons between 1940–1963, yielding ~500,000 lbs of copper at grades around 2.65% Cu.
  
  
• Historical Drilling:
  Roughly 3,900 meters across 21 holes were drilled in 2006 and 2011. The standout intercept - 45.7m of 0.78% Cu and 0.5 g/t Au (1.1% CuEq) - was near surface, confirming shallow, high-grade copper-gold skarn mineralization.
  
  
• Exploration Strategy:
  Corcel plans a mix of confirmation and step-out drilling around the historic workings, supported by recent drone magnetic surveys and rock-chip sampling. These have highlighted new skarn extensions and possible porphyry targets at depth in the Yuma King West and Three Musketeers areas.
  
  
• Upcoming Drill Program:
  The company is finalizing permits with the BLM and expects to begin a ~2,000-meter, 8-hole drill program, combining shallow skarn tests with a few deeper holes to probe potential porphyry systems.
  
  
• Infrastructure Advantages:
  Excellent access via highway and graded roads, close proximity to the town of Parker, and on-site water availability from the historic flooded mine make logistics straightforward.
  
  
• Valuation & Market Positioning:
  With a market cap of roughly C$6 million, Corcel trades at an early-stage valuation despite the project’s advanced groundwork and copper-gold exposure. Management expects increased market attention as drilling begins amid rising metal prices.
