QC Copper and Gold (TSXV: QCCU) has received an AI report detailing five priority drilling targets at its 25,000-hectare Opemiska project, which includes the former Springer and Perry copper-gold mines near Chapais, Quebec. The company is specifically looking for new discoveries.
The report was prepared by Windfall Geotech using artificial intelligence to evaluate historical drilling, geophysical and sampling data.
QC Copper said the success of the AI software depends on the quantity and quality of geological input, making Opemiska’s extensive range of validated data an ideal candidate. In addition to the preliminary targets highlighted in QC Copper’s January 16, 2024 press release, this AI assessment generated multiple AI target models at the Opemiska mine site, with a specific focus on the former Robitaille and Cooke mines.
