Tract name	Deposit type	Geology
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-Chile Late Cretaceous–middle Eocene Campana Mahuida	porphyry copper	Late Cretaceous, Paleocene, and middle Eocene mainly calc-alkalic granite, granodiorite, andesite, diorite, and dacite plutons too small to show at million scale.
Chile-Argentina Miocene coastal	porphyry copper	Miocene mainly calc-alkalic granodiorite, diorite, and tonalite plutons, including batholiths. Plutons and batholiths apparently are consanguineous with the plutons in tracts SA13aPC, SA13bPC, and SA13cPC.
Neuquen Basin	sediment-hosted stratabound copper	Jurassic to Cretaceous sedimentary rocks of the Neuquen Basin
