Gives ATM Quarterly Report
This information launch constitutes a “designated information launch” for the needs of the Firm’s prospectus complement dated July 17, 2024 to its brief kind base shelf prospectus and amended and restated brief kind base shelf prospectus dated June 7, 2024
World Copper Ltd. (TSXV: WCU) (OTCQB: WCUFF) (FSE:7LY0) (“World Copper” or the “Firm”) declares an amended mineral useful resource estimate (the “Amended Useful resource Estimate”) for the Zonia copper-oxide deposit in Arizona, USA (“Zonia” or the “Mission”), and has filed an amended copy of its Nationwide Instrument 43-101 Requirements of Disclosure for Mineral Tasks (“NI 43-101”) technical report on SEDAR+. A calculation error within the block mannequin used within the useful resource estimate necessitated a restating of the estimate.
The amended NI 43-101 technical report is entitled “Useful resource Estimate for The Zonia Mission 2024 Replace” (the “Technical Report“) and is dated November 8, 2024 and dated efficient August 27, 2024. The Technical Report was ready pursuant to NI 43-101 by Sue Fowl, P.Eng., of Moose Mountain Technical Companies (“MMTS“), an unbiased certified individual as outlined by NI 43-101 (the “QP“). The Technical Report is on the market on World Copper’s SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca and is on the market on World Copper’s web site at www.worldcopperltd.com.
Amended Useful resource Estimate for Zonia
The amended useful resource estimate incorporates Indicated Assets of 112.2 million brief tons grading 0.297% total-copper (TCu) containing 668 million kilos of copper, and Inferred Assets of 62.9 million brief tons grading 0.255 % total-copper containing 320 million kilos of copper. These numbers differ barely from these within the October 25, 2024 information launch https://worldcopperltd.com/2024/10/25/world-copper-files-technical-report-for-updated-resource-estimate-for-the-zonia-project/ , with nominal will increase (3%) to tonnage and complete contained copper, and a small lower (0.5%) in grade for less than the Indicated class.
The categorised sources are outlined intimately in Desk 1 on the base case cut-off grade of 0.18% and at a variety of cut-off grades in Desk 2. The Useful resource Estimate was accomplished for World Copper as a part of the Firm’s total exploration plan for Zonia (see information launch dated Could 22, 2022).
Desk 1. Zonia Mineral Useful resource Estimate on the Base Case Cutoff Grade
Classification (Oxidation State) | Copper Lower-off grade (%) | Quick Tons (Million) | Grade (TCu%) | Cu Lbs. (Million) |
Indicated (Oxide) | 0.18 | 101.2 | 0.300 | 608 |
Indicated (Blended) | 0.18 | 11.0 | 0.271 | 60 |
Whole Indicated | 0.18 | 112.2 | 0.297 | 668 |

Inferred (Blended) | 0.18 | 16.5 | 0.248 | 82 |
Whole Inferred | 0.18 | 62.9 | 0.255 | 320 |
Notes to the Useful resource Estimate Tables:
- The efficient date of the Useful resource Estimate is August 27, 2024.
- Assets are reported utilizing the 2014 CIM Definition Requirements and have been estimated utilizing the 2019 CIM Finest Practices Tips, as required by NI43-101
- The bottom case Mineral Useful resource has been confined by “affordable prospects of eventual financial extraction” form utilizing the next assumptions:
- Metallic value of US$4.00/lb of Cu
- Metallurgical restoration of 75% in oxides and 70% within the transitional zone
- Offsite prices of US$0.05/lb of Cu
- Processing Prices of US$4/ton milled and Basic & Administrative (G&A) prices of US$ 2.00/ton milled
- Mining price of US$2.00/ton mined
- 48-degree pit slopes
- The 150% value case pit shell is used for the useful resource confining form
- The ensuing NSR = Cu*US$3.95/lb *0.75 for oxides and NSR = Cu*US$3.95/lb *0.70 within the transitional zone.
- It’s fairly anticipated, although not assured, that almost all of Inferred Mineral Assets may very well be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Assets with continued exploration (see “Cautionary Observe to United States Buyers”).
- Numbers could not add because of rounding.
