Fuente De Oro Property

The Fuente De Oro property encompasses 85.7 Square kilometers (21,178 acres) of mineral rights which is considered highly prospective for gold and silver. Exploration conducted by the  original  property owners led to the identification of a felsic intrusive center, flanked by silicification and extensive siliceous sinter (paleo-hotspring) deposits. Reconnaissance traverses over the area identified a broad zone of sub-angular to rounded surficial vein material highly anomalous in gold and silver. In total, 30 samples were taken, with values ranging from background up to 35.6 g/t gold and 224 g/t silver. These exploration results have not yet been verified by Tasca Resources Ltd.

Fuente De Oro is located on strike and is less than 10 km’s away from B2Gold Corp.’s 100% owned La Libertad open pit gold mine. The La Libertad mine produced 132,431ounces of gold with an operating cash cost of $659 per ounce in 2016.  B2Gold Corp.’s Jabali Central and Jabali Antenna projects which are within 5KM of Fuente De Oro, are scheduled to go into production Q3. (http://www.b2gold.com/projects/producing/la-libertad/). La Libertad and Jabali are low-sulphidation adularia-sericite gold silver systems. The data on the La Libertad and Jabali deposits has not been independently verified by Tasca Resources Ltd. Further, the presence of mineralization on these two B2Gold Corp. properties in not necessarily indicative on mineralization on the Fuente De Oro property.
