| Deposit | EL YACIMIENTO ES DEL RELLENO DE FISURA, DE ORIGEN HIDROTERMAL (EPITERMAL A MESOTERMAL) FORMADO POR VETAS DE CUARZO CASI VERTICALES, SIENDO LA ROCA ENCAJONANTE ANDESITAS Y CALIZAS CRETACEAS. LA FRACTURA PRINCIPAL, CUYO AFLORAMIENTO ESTA DESCUBIERTO EN SU MAYOR PARTE, TIENE UNA LONGITUD DE 500 M. APROXIMADAMENTE |
| Deposit | LAS LABORES MINERAS EXISTENTES NO DEFINEN LAS VERDADERAS POSIBILIDADES DEL YACIMIENTO, PERMITIENDO SOLO CUBICAR UN TONELAJE ECONOMICO, CON UN VALOR UNITARIO APRECIABLE. DEBIDO A LA PRESENCIA EN LAS CERCANIAS DE AREAS DE CONTACTO INTERESANTES ENTRE CALIZAS, CUERPOS INTRUSIVOS Y VOLCANICOS, LAS POSIBILIDADES GEOLOGICAS Y POTENCIALIDAD DEL YACIMIENTO SON FAVORABLES ; INFO.SRC : 2 UNPUB REPT |
