Bocana Resources Corp. Provides an Update on Assay Analysis from the
Escala Project in Bolivia and a New Venture
CALGARY, Alberta, Jan. 12, 2024 -- Bocana Resources Corp. (TSXV: BOCA) (Frankfurt: VC1) (" Bocana" or the " Company")
is a company focused on the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral properties in South America. The Company
would like to provide the following operational updates.
Cerro Galapagos
The Assay results from holes HRC23-01 and HRC23-02 of the diamond drilling campaign at the Company’s Escala Project in
Southwest Bolivia have been received, compiled, and reviewed by Bocana personnel. Both holes tested the southern flank of
the Cerro Galapagos, induced polarization-chargeability anomaly.
The purpose of these holes was to test the porphyry potential of a large dacitic intrusive. Extensive hydrothermal alteration and
mineralization in the form of pyrite with trace amounts of arsenopyrite and chalcopyrite were encountered, however no
potentially economic base-precious metal concentrations were encountered over significant core lengths. The remaining holes
that were drilled will also be analyzed by Bocana personnel and reported accordingly.
Corporate Update
In conjunction with the work being done at Escala, Bocana is currently awaiting a commissioned NI 43-101 report through its
100% owned subsidiary Huiracocha Development Services SRL. The report is part of an in-depth study of a previous mining
operation in Bolivia that still contains extensive historical insitu, tailings and stockpile resources. Upon successful completion
of the studies and acquisition of the property the Company plans to immediately commence additional metallurgical studies in
order to begin production operations and increase gold and silver recoveries and lower production costs through leaching.
