Based on the results of the chip sampling the report recommended a work program to include the following:
- Exploration drilling totaling 2,000 metres to test the geometry and gold, silver and copper grades of the skarns.
- Property-wide rock sampling as well as geochemical sampling of the granodiorite.
- Detailed airborne gravity survey of the east half of the property to outline granodiorite contacts as well as high- density skarn zones.
- Detailed airborne high- density magnetic survey of the east half of the property to outline iron-rich skarns.
- Initiate metallurgical test work.
The Capricho concessions contain gold and silver mineralization within iron-skarn units and mineralized shear zones. As part of its due diligence program, Source carried out a surface channel sampling program at a number of sites on the property, including both current and historical workings. The sampling results included gold and silver assays of up to 99.28 grams/tonne gold and 569.0 grams/tonne silver over 2.0 metres. Highlights of the surface sampling program were provided in a News Release dated November 9, 2011 and a complete set of results is available on Source's website.
Brian E. Robertson, President and CEO, stated, "This initial NI 43-101 report on the Capricho property not only details its high potential but also serves as a guide for developing the exploration program.
