Comments on the reserve resource information

  • CON LAS LABORES SUBTERRANEAS RECOMENDADAS EN EL INFORME LAS RESERVAS AUMENTTARIAN. ADEMAS EXISTEN EN CANCHA UNAS 1,000 TM DE DESMONTE CON LEYES DEL ORDEN DE 3 OZ/TC AG Y 2% PB
  • ESTAS RESERVAS SON DE LAS VETAS SAN LORENZO Y SAN VICENTE EN LAS QUE SE ASUME AREAS MINERALIZADAS. SE ASUME UNA POTENCIA DE 0.75 M.LAS LEYES HAN SIDO CASTIGADASEN UN 20%, LO QUE NOS DARIA 8.1% OZ/TC AG Y 7.10 % PB
  • LAS POSIBILIDADES DE LA MINA SON LIMITADAS POR SU POCO CONOCIMIENTO EN PROFUNDIDAD,SOLO SE TRATARIAN DE CLAVOS MINERALIZADOS QUE NO PROFUNDIZAN . LAS 9,080TM = 9,850TC.
