Processing capabilities
There are no current onsite processing facilities, however, there are processing facilities near by to the project within 30Km.
Geology
The local geology can be characterized by volcanic rocks of a felsic-intermediate to mafic composition, which includes rhyolite tuffs, rhyolites, ignimbrites, andesitic tuffs and andesites of Tertiary age.
The main structures are faults with a NW-NE strike and dipping to the SW.
Mineralization
La Minita consists of three types of mineralization-
● Cu+ Au Porphyry
● Epithermal
● Disseminated sulphides in fault zones
Ore widths
Veins vary in size from 0.10 to 3.4 metres
Strike Lengths
Various with plunge
Overview – La Minita Project Group
The La Minita concession group consists of a contiguous group of 4 concessions with a total land position of 7,855 Ha. The concessions have various artisanal workings, some which are currently actively being mined.
The four concessions were strategically placed to envelope the southern end of a known Au, Ag & Cu system which is currently being mined by a major mining company and is the largest producing mine in Southern Sinaloa.
A small rock chip sampling program was completed in June 2015. This was part of the due diligence to acquire the group and to ensure serious exploration upside to develop a strong resource and finally mine development.
The location of the concession group adjacent to an already measured resource with active production and several local artisanal mines peppered over the group, provide confident indicators that exciting new discoveries can be made on a regular bases to build a strong well developed resource.
The owners are interested in an exploration JV not an outright sale though they are open to other possible modalities. Please contact Kelvin Williams for further information on this tremendous opportunity.
