History of the Collota Project |
Compania Minas Buenaventura first explored the property in the mid 90’s completing a total 83 drill holes for a total of 5,500 meters. In 2004 Buenaventure dropped the claims discouraged by the price of gold. To date, there has been substantial surface samples and drilling, on one small portion of the property. This portion of the property contains 720,000 ounces of gold.
