Erdene Resource Development Corp. has discovered a new copper zone located over two km northwest of the existing Zuun Mod molybdenum/copper resource. “We look forward to the resumption of drilling in the near future,” said President and CEO Peter Akerley. “This intersection of significant copper mineralization further illustrates the potential for new discoveries within the large porphyry system at Zuun Mod.”  Erdene controls the Zuun Mod deposit through a single exploration license totaling 30,650 hectares, located in Bayankhongor province, approximately 950 km southwest of Ulaanbaatar.
