After raising about US$25 million, the company is running seven drill rigs and has completed over 10,000 meters across 30+ holes to validate the geological model and upgrade resource confidence toward pre-feasibility, highlighting a higher-grade central core (around 0.6% to over 1% copper). Lara is also drilling south of the Silica Cap pit with encouraging intersections and working through permitting and land access for the nearby Atlantica license, a prospective 3 km extension. Parallel work includes water wells, geotechnical and metallurgical drilling (phase three), access/power studies, and water management. Upcoming catalysts include batch drill results, an updated resource estimate, pre-feasibility progress, and environmental studies leading to permit filings; Ingram also notes a nearby BHP asset sale for over $400 million. 00:00 Intro 00:37 Planalto Drilling Update 02:29 Silica Cap Extension 04:24 Model Validation Studies 06:43 Pre-Feasibility Explained 08:41 District M&A Activity 09:49 Prospect Generator Portfolio 11:03 Upcoming Catalysts Permitting https://laraexploration.com/ TSXV:LRA -- OTC:LRAXF Press Release discussed: https://laraexploration.com/news/2026/lara-exploration-announces-14-000-metre-validation-drilling-program-underway-at-the-planalto-project/ Listen to MSE’s first Lara interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sN6oqEUsmTk Sponsor Lara Exploration pays MSE a United States dollar seven thousand per month coverage fee.
