3. Latin Metals (OTC:LMSQF) gave an update on its 100% owned Organullo Project, where an option agreement allows AngloGold Argentina Exploraciones (NYSE:AU) to earn up to 80% interest.
AngloGold’s geophysical survey identified a high-priority drill corridor in West Graben.
Prior mapping and sampling identified three drill targets with advanced argillic alteration spanning over six kilometers.
Organullo’s eastern graben, near the historical Julio Verne Mine, has seen past exploration, but the western graben has been overlooked.
AngloGold’s holistic approach identified potential for porphyry copper-gold and high-sulphidation epithermal gold deposits, untested by drilling.
Their exploration thesis could lead to a significant discovery.
