Property Information and Exploration History
30 trenches excavated, exposing 2,937 metres of mineralized zones.
690 continuous channel samples collected.
A total of 1,674 rock samples gathered, including rock chips, channel chip samples, and
float samples.
Hosts over 10km of low-sulfidation epithermal gold veins, averaging one metre in width and
ranging from 50 to 2,500 metres in length.
Veins exhibit low-sulfidation multi-pulse textures including drusy quartz, banding,
crustiform structures, and carbonate replacement.
Favorable structural settings and extensive vein systems make La Esperanza a compelling
target for ongoing exploration and drilling.
Channel sample highlights include 2.0 metres at 24 g/t Au, 5.0 metres at 13.1 g/t Au, 1.3
