Intrepid Metals is preparing for an active second half of 2026 as the company advances exploration at its Corral Copper Project in southeastern Arizona under new CEO Matt Lennox-King. Matt joins Mining Stock Daily to discuss the evolving geological model, why recent fieldwork has strengthened the case for a nearby porphyry system, and how the newly identified Curly target could reshape the project&#x27;s exploration potential. The conversation also covers the upcoming IP survey, a 10,000-meter drill program, and the strategy to balance expansion of the near-surface CRD mineralization while testing deeper porphyry targets for the first time. With a refreshed technical approach and multiple catalysts on the horizon, Intrepid is entering what management believes could be a transformative exploration season.

Mining Stock Daily

Alright everybody, welcome back into Mining Stock Daily. I think we have gotten through all of our Boca Raton interviews and so on to some regular scheduled corporate updates, morning briefings and the whatnot to get us through the rest of the week. And actually we are going to bring on a company, we actually introduced this story back in the Beaver Creek Precious Metals Conference last fall, but the company has gone through a couple changes.

Same project, the Coral Project in Arizona, different management. In fact, we are welcoming back a long lost voice, long lost face to many of us, Matt Lennox King, CEO of Intrepid Metals. They do trade on the venture with INTR and on the OTCQB with IMTCF. Matt, it's really good to see you. Welcome back. Thank you. It's good to be back. It's been a while for sure.

All right. Well, you have been on this podcast for many years before. You took a little bit of hiatus after Contact Gold, but you're back. I mean, you just can't quit this sector. You got to come back, obviously. So here you are. But walk us through taking on the CEO role here of Intrepid.

Absolutely. Yeah, thanks. And look, it's great. It's great to be back. Intrepid to me, it's a pretty compelling opportunity. So for background, I'd originally been on the board from December 2024 until Feb of this year. And, you know, there was a certain direction at the company that I wasn't entirely happy with as a director.

So I stepped down. That precipitated changes at the management level and board level. And I was asked to come back by a group of shareholders as board chair and interim CEO, which I was happy to do.
