Condor Triples Size of the Huiñac Punta Property
VANCOUVER, November 11, 2024 - Condor Resources Inc. ("Condor" or the "Company") (TSXV:CN) is pleased to report that it has acquired additional exploration concessions at its Huiñac Punta high-grade silver prospect adjacent to its current project significantly expanding the property size from 2,000 to 7,200 hectares (Ha). The additional concessions acquired by uncontested application add 5,200 Ha of prospective ground to the project land package. Management believes Huiñac Punta has the potential to host a large, carbonate replacement style (CRD) silver-dominant polymetallic mineralized body.
Based on sampling of existing surface exposures, mineralization includes high-grade Ag and elevated Cu, Zn, Pb and Co values. Of 163 two-metre rock chip samples collected by Condor, 28 samples reported silver grades greater than 100 g/t and included bonanza grades in two-metre chip samples of 4,115 and 3,225 g/t Ag. Evidence of historical workings from Spanish colonial times is present with several accessible historical adits showing evidence of the elevated silver values associated with disseminated grey and black breccia-hosted sulfide material consisting of sphalerite, galena, chalcocite, bornite, covellite and undetermined lead and silver sulphosalts.
Chris Buncic, President & CEO of Condor, commented, "the acquisition of these additional concessions provides Condor with a significant land package at Huiñac Punta, where we hope to make a new district-scale silver and base metals discovery. Adding to our land package was a significant step to ensure the company's exposure to this resource and development potential as we set about our preparing for the maiden drill program at the project. Our latest understanding is that the Initiation of Activities document, in effect the final drill permit, should be forthcoming in a matter of days."
