ATEX Resources Inc. (ATXRF) generates frequent technical and corporate news centered on the Valeriano Copper-Gold Project in Chile’s Atacama Region. Company releases focus on drill results, Mineral Resource updates, land and surface rights acquisitions, and capital markets developments related to its TSX Venture and OTCQB listings.
A major theme in ATEX news is the progression of the Valeriano copper-gold porphyry system, particularly the high-grade B2B breccia zone and the high-grade porphyry core. Recent announcements detail results from multi-phase drill programs, including Phase V and Phase VI, where multiple diamond drill rigs are active on site. These updates often report copper equivalent (CuEq) grades over significant intervals, discuss the continuity of mineralization, and describe how new data may influence the understanding of the B2B Zone and the broader porphyry system.
Another recurring news topic is the project’s Mineral Resource Estimate prepared under NI 43-101. ATEX has reported an updated independent MRE for Valeriano, followed by the filing of a technical report on SEDAR+. News items explain changes in Indicated and Inferred resources, highlight the inclusion of the B2B Zone in the resource model, and provide context on the project’s scale within the regional copper-gold porphyry belt.
Corporate and strategic developments also feature in ATEX’s news flow. These include the acquisition of a 14,550-hectare surface rights package with associated water use rights, the addition of new exploration claims, management appointments, stock option and RSU grants, DTC eligibility in the United States, and commencement of trading on the OTCQB. Investors following ATXRF news can expect detailed drill assay tables, maps and figures, program updates, and commentary on exploration priorities and project derisking activities.
ATEX Resources (TSXV:ATX / OTCQB:ATXRF) announced acceleration of the expiry for 21,057,477 warrants issued November 1, 2024.

The company says the B2B zone now approximates 400 m strike, up to 200 m horizontal width and 500–600 m vertical extent. About 400 m of assays remain outstanding and Phase VI has passed half of the targeted 25,000 m drill program.
ATEX (TSXV: ATX / OTCQB: ATXRF) reported Phase VI drill results at the Valeriano project on December 18, 2025, including a daughter hole ATXD26B with 146m at 2.00% CuEq and a high-grade core of 54m at 2.50% CuEq. Finalized assays for ATXD25C returned 164m at 2.77% CuEq within a broader 584m at 1.27% CuEq interval. The program has completed ~12,550m of the targeted 25,000m; over 600m of assays remain pending with full results expected in January.

ATEX (TSXV: ATX, OTCQB: ATXRF) filed an NI 43-101 Technical Report effective November 3, 2025 containing an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Valeriano copper-gold project in Atacama, Chile. Key MRE highlights include an Indicated 475 Mt at 0.88% CuEq (0.58% Cu, 0.25 g/t Au) and Inferred 1,511 Mt at 0.75% CuEq (0.50% Cu, 0.20 g/t Au) at a 0.35% Cu cut-off.
Notable high-grade zones include the B2B initial Indicated 28.4 Mt at 1.36% CuEq. Phase VI drilling reported hole ATXD25C with 164 m @ 2.72% CuEq including higher-grade intervals. Reported discovery cost is $0.0049/lb Cu and >500,000 oz of inferred gold oxide at surface provide exploration upside.
ATEX Resources (TSXV: ATX • OTCQB: ATXRF) reported initial results from Phase VI hole ATXD25C at the Valeriano copper‑gold project in Atacama, Chile, dated October 21, 2025. ATXD25C returned 164 m of 2.72% CuEq (1.69% Cu, 0.97 g/t Au) including 40 m of 4.73% CuEq (2.76% Cu, 1.88 g/t Au) from 1,558 m downhole. The interval sits inside a broader 528 m of 1.32% CuEq from 1,302 m, and exceeds average grade in the 2025 Mineral Resource estimate for the tested area.
Phase VI is fully operational with six rigs targeting ~25,000 m of drilling to expand the high‑grade B2B Zone and test nearby B2B‑like targets; several follow‑up holes and assays remain pending.
ATEX Resources (OTCQB:ATXRF) has launched Phase VI, its largest exploration program to date at the Valeriano Project in Chile, targeting 25,000 meters of directional diamond drilling. The first drill hole ATXD25C has been completed, intersecting approximately 200 meters of B2B-style mineralization within a broader 492-meter interval.
The program aims to expand the high-grade B2B Zone, which currently contains 28.4 Mt Indicated resources at 1.36% CuEq and 2.6 Mt Inferred at 1.05% CuEq. ATEX is operating with six rigs and commenced drilling six weeks earlier than in 2024, demonstrating improved operational efficiency. The company is also conducting environmental monitoring, engineering studies, and permitting work to support future development.
ATEX Resources (OTCQB:ATXRF) has signed a binding agreement to acquire a strategic 14,550-hectare surface rights package for US$21 million in Chile's Atacama Region. The acquisition includes valuable water rights and covers the Valeriano Copper-Gold Project while extending into neighboring properties owned by Antofagasta Minerals and Codelco.
The company has also expanded its exploration footprint by adding 12,720 hectares of new claims - 10,800 ha west (Juno) and 1,920 ha east (Nueva) of Valeriano, increasing its total exploration holdings by over 300% to 16,515 hectares. The western claims feature an untested hyperspectral alteration anomaly similar to those observed at Valeriano and other regional projects.
This strategic acquisition will eliminate approximately US$450,000 in annual land access payments while generating revenue through existing land access agreements. The company had approximately C$50 million in cash at the time of executing the agreement.
ATEX Resources (OTCQB: ATXRF) announced an updated Mineral Resource Estimate for its Valeriano Project in Chile, establishing it as one of the largest undeveloped copper-gold projects globally. The resource includes 475 million tonnes at 0.88% CuEq Indicated and 1.5 billion tonnes at 0.75% CuEq Inferred.
Key highlights include 6.1 billion pounds of copper Indicated and 16.7 billion pounds Inferred, plus significant gold and silver resources. The high-grade B2B Zone contains 28.4 million tonnes Indicated at 1.36% CuEq, suggesting potential for a smaller starter underground mine. The project demonstrates exceptional metallurgical recoveries exceeding 95% for copper and gold, producing a clean concentrate.
