![San Lorenzo Begins Key Phase of Exploration with Induced Polarization Survey Commencing on It's 100% Owned Large Scale Cu-Au Porphyry Salvadora Project](https://www.goldseiten.de/media/goldseiten-news.jpg)
The IP survey will initially cover the central portion ("CMZ Zone") of the Property which hosts favourable porphyry style mineralization and phyllic to potassic alteration containing disseminated and vein hosted copper mineralization identified by surface sampling and limited diamond drilling (see Figure 1).

IP is a key survey for identifying porphyry style copper mineralization and results from the IP survey combined with data from the Company's recently completed Magnetometer survey (see News Release dated July 22, 2021) will be used to prioritize diamond drill targets in a large diamond drill programme on what is one of Chile's most prospective large scale copper - gold porphyry systems.
Salvadora Copper - Gold Project Highlights
-
- Potential to discover large bulk mineable copper - gold porphyry
- 15 km from world class billion+ tonne El Salvador copper - gold porphyry mine
-
- Recently announced US$1.4 billion expansion to increase annual copper production to 200 million pounds
-
-
- Geologically very similar to El Salvador mine including:
-
- Style of mineralization;
- Alteration;
- Favourable copper bearing rocks are similar age;
-
-
- Project has not been fully and systematically explored leaving potential untapped;
-
- Limited diamond drilling;
- Magnetometer survey recently completed;
-
-
- Drilling in the porphyry style alteration zones has returned encouraging copper - gold grades;
-
- 156 metres of 0.28% copper and 0.08 g/t gold
- 35 metres of 0.28% copper and 0.11 g/t gold;
- Additional upside from two extensive epithermal vein systems;
-
- Outcrop and underground sampling returned:
-
- 5.1 - 154.5 g/t gold, 1.3 - 61.8 g/t silver and 0.16 - 1.75% copper over 1.5-2.1 metres;
- Historically reported small scale, underground production to 240 metres:
-
- 4.5 - 195 g/t gold, 20 - 356 g/t silver ,1.4 - 23.6% copper over 0.5 -3.0 metres
-
- Located at relatively low elevation and readily accessible year round.
