Getty Copper ( (TSE:GTC) ) just unveiled an update.

Getty Copper has launched a 10,000-metre spring drilling campaign at its Getty Project, marking its largest program since 1997 and the first significant drilling on the property in nearly three decades. The work, centered on the Getty North deposit but also targeting Getty South and other satellites, aims to expand known mineralized zones at depth and test for higher-grade copper.

The program is designed to both grow and technically de-risk the resource by collecting core for geometallurgical and metallurgical testing, including evaluating near-surface supergene copper that may be amenable to heap leaching. Management positions this accelerated drilling push, with further 4,000–6,000 metres planned for late 2026, as a way to unlock value from a large, underexplored land package in a strong copper price environment, potentially enhancing the project’s long-term development prospects for investors and the regional copper industry.
