Perth, Australia – September 11, 2026 -- Hot Chili Limited has reported a fresh round of high-grade drill results from its La Verde copper-gold porphyry discovery in Chile, with hole DKP063 returning 398 metres grading 0.45% copper equivalent (CuEq) from surface, including a standout 62-metre interval at 0.91% CuEq from just 20 metres depth.

Within the broader intersection, DKP063 recorded 12 metres grading 1.00% CuEq (0.66% Cu, 0.49 g/t Au) from 20 metres, and a further 34 metres at 1.00% CuEq (0.80% Cu, 0.27 g/t Au) from 42 metres. Hot Chili said the shallow high-grade continuity strengthens the case for a high-grade starter pit feeding into the Costa Fuego mine plan, located 30 km north of La Verde in Chile's coastal Atacama region.
