EXPLORATION IN FRENCH GUIANA

The preliminary evaluation of the "César" site will start this year with the following work:

  • - Definition and resource drilling;

  • - Geostatistical analysis;

  • - Design of the mine and metallurgy;

  • - Necessary starting infrastructure;

  • - Economic analysis.

This work will continue with a feasibility study that should be completed by the end of 2022 and that could then allow for the development of the mine in 2023.

Exploration will continue this year on the "Couriège" site, with the preparation of the drilling campaignand the third IP-MAG geophysical campaign.

The main objective of the campaign is to circumscribe a mineralized corridor of more than 3km on the axis between "Dieu-Merci" and "Couriège".

EXPLORATION IN PERU

A total of 1,865 samples were taken at the "El Santo" mine, 1,026 of which were primary samples and 376 were QAQC (Quality Assurance and Quality Control) samples. These samples range from DDH-ES-21-001 to DDH-ES-21-015.

  • - DDH-ES-21-003: "El Angel" Vein 102.15 - 105.20 m. (2.64 m thickness) @ 0.04 g Au / t, 2.39 OzAg / t, 0.23% Cu, 5.96% Pb and 3.73% Zn.

  • - DDH-ES-21-003: 121.00 - 123.00 m. (1.73 m thickness) @ 0,01 g Au/t, 2,56 Oz Ag/t, 0,83% Cu, 4.19% Pb and 12.20% Zn.

- DDH-ES-21-015

Economic mineralization is controlled by replacement with base metal precipitation (Cu-Pb-Zn).

"Sandra 104", adjacent to the "El Santo" Mine (Sandra 105): 213 ha of an initial program of 187 ha have been mapped out. Several structures were identified, surface geochemistry was carried out, along with an IP-MAG campaign of the area.

Lucero

Vein

At "San Miguel" diamond drilling has revealed deep sericite alteration with sulphide veinlets (Tetrahedrite, Galena, Sphalerite, Chalcopyrite, Pyrite), with the presence of Molybendum. These veins indicate gradation towards a deep porphyry-esque system.
