The El Aguila Project, located 120 kilometers southeast of the capital city of Oaxaca, Mexico, is a significant, newly discovered high-grade gold and silver system. The property has yielded several exceptional gold and silver surface samples, including a 36 grams-per-ton (g/t) gold sample and a 3,100 g/t silver sample. *
The first drill hole initiated from the area of these surface samples resulted in the discovery of 16 meters of mineralization at 6.56 g/t of gold. Subsequent drilling identified a shallow, sub-horizontal mineralized zone (manto) with an inferred grade of 7.43 g/t of gold and 63 g/t of silver. The Company believes the discovery can be mined via an economical, shallow open pit.
The cross-section of Figure 1 (below) shows the exceptional high-grade nature of this discovery. In addition, the best 2-meter drilled intercept, off section, of 101.5 g/t of gold and 1,040 g/t of silver suggests the intersection of a high-grade, vein type, feeder zone to this manto deposit, with the potential for mineralization extending to depth.
