Zonia Copper-Oxide Deposit MRE Update

VANCOUVER - World Copper Ltd. reported on the updated mineral resource estimate for the Zonia copper-oxide deposit in Arizona. The updated estimate includes 113.2 million short tons grading 0.303% total-copper in the Indicated category (686 million pounds of copper), and 59.2 million short tons grading 0.254% total-copper in the Inferred category, (300 million pounds of copper). This is a significant expansion of the 2023 resource estimate and is a result of using a higher copper price and refined mineralization models and modeling method.

CEO, Gord Neal, said, "This updated resource significantly increases the value of an already prominent copper asse. This new report greatly de-risks the project by expanding the indicated resource classification of the deposit. This new resource definition could significantly extend the life of mine of the project. It also has the potential to substantially increase the throughput of future operations and boost the projected annual production profile. Combined with the resource expansion potential of the Zonia North properties, the Project is now exhibiting the potential to become a large-scale copper producer."
