Corporate Update

The Company has completed 11 holes at the Miguel Vacas copper deposit totaling 1,410m. Most of the holes intercepted a wide quartz-breccia zone varying from approximately 5m up to more than 30m thick. An undercut 350m hole was completed in addition to the initial plan. Results have been received for eight of the eleven holes drilled to date. All holes have successfully intersected the breccia zone over a strike length of 1.1km and confirmed it is open along strike both to the north and south.

Significant results include (further details are summarized in the table below):

  • Hole # 1 - 22.8m grading 2.76 % Cu, from 49.4m with 9.0m grading 7.49% Cu from 57.8m

  • Hole # 3 - 12.3m grading 1.55% Cu, from 66.6m.

  • Hole #4 - 10.5m grading 2.56 % Cu, from 62.0m, with 5.0m grading 4.52% Cu, from 62.0m

  • Hole #8 - 14.1 m grading 1.06% Cu from 47.0m, with 6.9m grading 1.81% Cu, from 52.2m

Based on these good results, a decision was made to drill a deeper hole (Hole #11) to investigate the primary ore at depth and to compare it with shallow intercepts regarding mineralogy, grades and thickness. Assays are pending from 3 holes including the undercut hole #11 which intersected significant sulphide mineralization at depth well below the supergene zone. The Company is still awaiting final assays.
