Tract name	Deposit type	Geology
Chile Cretaceous Antucoya	porphyry copper	Cretaceous calc-alkalic plutons, including batholiths.
Chile-Peru Paleocene-Eocene Toquepala	porphyry copper	Paleocene and Eocene mostly calc-alkaline plutons. Includes the Toquepala volcanics and coeval porphyry plutons (Peru), and rhyolite domes, dacite pyroclastics, and associated calderas (Chile).
Argentina Permian San Jorge	porphyry copper	Distribution of Permian calc-alkaline generally dioritic to dacitic plutons defines two geographically separate sub-tracts, SA16aPC and SA16bPC, which are southern continuations of Permian tract SA18PC.
Argentina Miocene Paramillos	porphyry copper	Mainly late Miocene to early Pliocene calc-alkalic plutons intruding folded and intensely thrust faulted Paleozoic country rocks. Mostly too small to differentiate at million scale.
