Benton Resources: Advancing Copper and Gold Exploration in Newfoundland
Benton Resources is accelerating its copper and gold exploration efforts in Newfoundland, achieving an impressive drill success rate and uncovering high-grade mineralization.
Expanding High-Grade Mineral Resources with Strong Drill Results
Benton Resources is making significant progress at its Newfoundland-based copper and gold project, where extensive drilling has confirmed a high-grade resource with substantial growth potential. The company has completed 18,000 meters of drilling with a 95% success rate, identifying 1.2 million tons of measured and indicated copper resources at over 3% copper—a rarity in today’s market. Additionally, Benton has outlined a large gold system, with recent drilling yielding 54 meters at 1.88 g/t gold, reinforcing the project’s multi-metal potential.
With a strong history of exploration success and resource expansion, Benton Resources is well-positioned to advance this promising asset. As drilling continues, the company remains focused on unlocking additional value in one of Canada’s most exciting mining regions.
