Exploration based on IP anomalies interpreted as buried porphyry targets. Copper mined in 1960s. Drilled summer of 2010 to test Cu-Au-Mo soil anomaly. Pica prospect drilled in 2005 intersected 213 m at 0.18% Cu, 0.30 g/t Au, 1.19 g/t Ag. Includes Calumpang Copper/Gold Project, a geophysical target NE of Pica. Lobo is a high sulfidation epithermal vein-breccia complex that produced gold in the past. Gold area is within 2 km of Calumpang project. Current exploration based on IPanomalies interpreted as buried porphyry targets. Copper mined in the 1960s. |
