05:39 AM EST, 11/04/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Aterian (ATN.L) is set to begin an 800-meter scout reverse circulation drilling program at its 85%-owned Azrar copper-silver project in Morocco. The drill rig has been mobilized, with access upgrades and drill pad preparation underway, according to a Wednesday release. The target is a one-kilometer-long mineralized fault zone and the surrounding sediments, where historic rock chip samples returned up to 3.41% copper and 56 grams per tonne of silver. The drilling will test how far the surface mineralization continues underground and provide data to guide further exploration. The critical metals-focused company said the program is fully funded through its joint venture with Lithosquare.
