Subject category Comment text
Deposit SE TRATA DE FALLAS VERTICALES MINERALIZADAS, LAS ESTRUCTURAS MINERALIZADAS TIENEN UNA POTENCIA QUE VARIA ENTRE 30 Y 90 CM CON HILOS Y LENTES DE MINERALIZACION MASIVA CON FRANJAS DE PANIZO EN LOS COSTADOS. AUNQUE LAS VETAS CRUZAN LOS DISTINTOS TIPOS DE ROCAS, A JUZGAR POR LAS ACTUALES LABORES, NO HAY CONTROL DE LA MINERALIZACION DEBIDO A LA LITOLOGIA.
