Hercules Metals (TSXV: BIG) continues to advance its Idaho-based Hercules Project, targeting the Leviathan copper porphyry with a 12,000m drill program in 2025.
Hercules found the copper porphyry under an existing silver-lead-zinc system at its 100% owned project.
A drill program, new permits, expanded land holdings, and support from Barrick Mining position the company for meaningful results.

Quincy or #BlueHills #Porphyry #Granite
An alkaline, nonorogenic granite intruded into #Avalonia in the #Silurian / #Ordovician as it cruised from peri-#Gondwana to #Laurentia, before assembling #Pangea in the #Acadian #Orogeny (#Devonian). It’s coarse, with the #phenocrysts of amphiboles(?) (possibly riebeckite?)…I’m no petrologist. From@the Eaton’s Pond conservation area@at the #Braintree #Quincy border. My photos.
