Location of the ORGATASH Project |
The Orgatash prospect occurs within EMX's Gezart exploration license in the Kyrgyz Republic's Southern Tien Shan gold belt.

|
History of the ORGATASH Project |
Gold mineralization at Orgatash was first recognized by Soviet geologists in 1980. Soviet soil sampling defined a 2.5 square kilometer area of anomalous gold with elevated levels of silver, arsenic, and bismuth. The mineralization appears to be controlled by a northwest trending shear zone. Eleven Soviet trenches and eight rock sample profiles were sampled along a northeast orientation.

Geology of the ORGATASH Project |
|
Orgatash is underlain by hornfelsed shale and siltstone cut by a Permian-aged granodiorite stock. This geologic setting is favorable for the occurrence of intrusion-hosted gold deposits given the well-documented relationship between Permian-aged granite and granodiorite and gold mineralization in the Tien Shan.
