Camino Management Visits Local Community at Maria Cecilia Copper Porphyry Project Ahead of New Drilling Campaign

02.11.2021  |  Accesswire
VANCOUVER, Nov. 2, 2021 - Camino Corp. (TSXV:COR)(OTC PINK:CAMZF)(WKN:A116E1) ("Camino" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it is preparing to drill its second copper project in Peru at the Maria Cecilia copper porphyry district ("Maria Cecilia" or "the Project"). Camino closed the purchase of Maria Cecilia from Denham Capital in July 2021 (see news release dated July 14, 2021). Camino's CEO, Jay Chmelauskas, recently visited a village adjacent to the Project and participated in a community assembly to introduce the Company. Mr. Chmelauskas was accompanied by Camino's community relations team that included two Quechua speakers and the Director of Camino's Peruvian operations. The Company presented the proposed work program that includes building roads for exploration access, soil and rock sampling and trenching, and diamond drilling. Management at Camino was pleased to participate in this meeting as part of Camino's commitment to social responsibility at Maria Cecilia.

An environmental instrument is in the final stages of review with the General Directorate of Mining Environmental Affairs (DGAAM) of the Ministry of Energy and Mines to permit a maiden drilling program at the Maria Cecilia copper porphyry, and is expected in December 2021, followed by the start of operations at the beginning of 2022.

"It was a pleasure to meet with the community that lives near Maria Cecilia and to commence exploration activities at the Project," said Jay Chmelauskas, CEO of Camino. "The community has supported previous exploration programs in the area, including drilling activities that have identified over 120 million tonnes of copper, gold, silver, and molybdenum inferred resources at Maria Cecilia (see further details below and link to Technical Report). This is the first time that the central Maria Cecilia porphyry will be drilled within this district. Similar to the drilling that is underway at our Los Chapitos IOCG copper project, we are exploring for major extensions to known copper mineralization at Maria Cecilia in order to expand existing copper resources with a potential new discovery in the central porphyry."

The Maria Cecilia property is 100% owned by Camino. Toropunto, Emmanuel, and Maria Cecilia are three contiguous porphyry centers that form the Maria Cecilia project. The property consists of 15 mineral concessions (approximately 7,110 ha) in the northern Peruvian region of Huaraz. The property is located in the district of Pamparomas, province of Huaylas, Ancash department, approximately 62 km southwest of Caraz city and 400 km north of the city of Lima. Historically, the properties have developed a series of exploratory works since 2009, with geological mapping, geochemical sampling, surface geophysics, and diamond drilling.

"During this visit to Peru, I had the opportunity to drive from Caraz, over the top of Maria Cecilia, down the western slopes of the Cordillera Negra, all the way to the Pan-American Highway to the west coast of Peru," added Mr. Chmelauskas. "We drove past several powerline corridors and recognized the close proximity of Maria Cecilia to the coastline (60 to 100 km)."

Exploration History, Geology, and Resources

The mineralogy at Maria Cecilia is situated within Cretaceous sedimentary geology that host an epithermal and porphyry metallogenetic belt considered prospective for Cu-Mo-Au porphyries, Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag skarn and polymetallic deposits related to Miocene intrusives. The project is located in the Cordillera Negra that belongs to geotectonic domain number 3, known as the Cordillera Occidental. The Cordillera Negra is characterized by different types of deposits such as polymetallic, low and high sulphidation epithermal, porphyry and skarn systems located in the western sector of the central Andes in northern Peru. Regionally, it is composed of Mesozoic sedimentary rocks to Cenozoic volcanic rocks that are intruded by granitic to tonalitic rocks of Miocene and Pliocene age. This domain is controlled by regional fold and fault systems that have a NW-SE to NNW-SSE direction. In Toropunto, two styles of mineralization have been recognized, the first style with polymetallic mineralization Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag, is hosted within garnet skarns, adjacent to dioritic sills. The second style of Cu-Au-Mo mineralization is characteristic of hydrothermal systems distally related to porphyries that occur within mineralized structures in intrusive rocks with advanced argillic and phyllic alteration. A total of 59 drill holes have been used to complete the mineral resource estimate at Toropunto and Emmanuel.
