Legal Situation El RUBI 1,652 has. Title 224454 El RUBI FRACC. 1 60 has. Title 224455 Panamerican Silver (Under option to Panamerican Silver)
Geology Thick felsic – intermediate volcanic rocks sequence, Dikes Thick felsic – intermediate volcanic rocks sequence, dominated by felsic tuffs an andesitic flows Intruded by rhyodacitic dikes Dikes
Mineralization Mineralization is often associated to the rhyodacitic dikes, with quartz stockworks developing in the dikes or in the adjoining wallrocks Rhyolitic tuffs Rhyodacitic dikes Andesitic tuffs
Gold on Rock Samples Good surface geochemistry, with gold up to 110 g/t and silver up to 6,720 g/t
Silver on Rock Samples Good surface geochemistry, with silver up to 6,720 g/t at El Rubí, 943 g/t ppm at Campo Santo, 1,530 g/t at Convirginia, 558 g/t at Pinos Altos and 73 g/t at Las Huatas Las Huatas vein, 4m wide on the road to Mesa de Tres Ríos
Drilling 23,500 m of drilling in 94 holes, first by Minefinders and later by Pan American Silver, From 2010 to 2013 Mineralization occurs in a more than 500 meters vertical span Convirgionia Zone Multiple mineralized structures that run for kilometers Las Huatas Zone Two ore shoots (clavos) identified in the Esperanza claim
