| Geology of the Rio Figueroa Project |
|
|
Drill results have defined a core zone of copper-gold mineralization of 400 by 500 meters, extending to a vertical depth of approximately 400 meters. The core zone occurs within a broader two square kilometers area of hydrothermal alteration with anomalous copper-gold mineralization. The Cerro Matta target remains open in three directions and at depth.
