LONDON - Orosur Mining Inc. ('Orosur' or the 'Company') (TSX-V/AIM: OMI), is pleased to announce that results from the first reconnaissance geochemical soil sampling program at the La Esfinge prospect at El Pantano have returned highly anomalous results in Gold and several other pathfinder elements, over a 3.3km strike length of the target, with moderate level anomalism over an additional 3.4km of the target.
Gold anomalism in soil samples have returned results in excess of 100ppb Au across the western half of the La Esfinge target, with highly significant anomalies from other elements such as Arsenic (As), Silver (Ag), Bismuth (Bi), Indium (In) and Copper (Cu) across the entire length of the target of almost 7km.
Anomalism remains open to the west.
While widely spaced and preliminary in nature, these results are highly encouraging from a first pass program and are in accordance with the geochemical responses we would expect to see from an epithermal gold system in this environment.
As a result of these positive results, the Company's geological teams have returned to El Pantano to carry out a short in-fill program to better define the scale and nature of the key anomalies before the approaching winter. Due to time constraints associated with short days, this infill will concentrate on the western half of the target with the most anomalous gold values.
El Pantano
The El Pantano Project is subject to an Exploration & Joint Venture ('JV') agreement ('Agreement') with private Argentinean company DESEADO DORADO S.A.S and its shareholders ('Deseado').
The general terms of the Agreement allow for the Company to earn 100% equity in the Project by investing US$3m over five years in two phases: Phase 1, earn 51% by investing US$1m over an initial 3-year period.
Phase 2, move to 100% ownership by investing an additional US$2m over a subsequent 2-year period and granting Deseado a residual 2% net smelter return royalty on the Project.
Orosur CEO Brad George commented: 'While preliminary and reconnaissance in nature, these positive results are highly encouraging from a first pass program on a virgin prospect. We targeted La Esfinge not only because of its positive geological indicators, but also its very large size. To now see geochemical anomalism along almost the entire 8km strike gives us much to work with moving forward.'
