Chief Properties

Apoquindo Copper Oxide Project (Chile)

Apoquindo’s flagship project is located in the prolific Antofagasta Mining Belt in Chile, which hosts several large producing copper mines. After 40,000m of drilling since Feb. ‘08, several new zones of high-grade mineralization on the property were discovered. The Company now anticipates adding significant tonnage to their current resource estimate of 12M tonnes of 1.1% Cu (historical resource, currently being confirmed), which will be outlined in the NI 43-101 Report to be released in September ’08. With excellent infrastructure and processing facilities already in place, management intends to have this project producing in 2009.




Huarman Gold-Silver Project (Peru)

Located 45km south of Barrick’s Pierina Mine, this massive prospect provides a geophysical anomaly of 500m in strike length and 100m in width at surface. 115 rock samples from the property averaged 1.4 g/t Au and 36 g/t Ag in the San Juan Breccia Zone. Results to date confirm the near surface bulk tonnage potential of the Breccia system. Drilling has commenced.

The best continuous gold intersections from underground channel sampling include:

  • 52m of 1.0 g/t gold including 10m of 2.57 g/t gold
  • 24m of 4.0 g/t gold including 2m of 46 g/t gold
  • 46m of 0.7 g/t gold including 14m of 1.04 g/t gold

Pachagon Leachable Copper Prospect (Peru)

This highly sought-after property hosts strongly leached, former quartz-sulfide stockwork mineralization which is recognized over an area of 1200m x 600m. IP geophysics and a 2500m drill program are to begin in Q3 of ’08. Historic drill results provide multi-percent copper values and the principle target is near surface.
