The Incahuasi property is located in the high Andean plateau region known as the Puna in northwest Argentina. The area of interest consists of an historic gold mine with intermittent production since pre-Hispanic time. Production from 1936 to 1954 reportedly recovered average grades between 12 and 18 g/t Au with local bonanza grades up to 300 g/t Au. Incahuasi is interpreted to be a Sediment Hosted Vein (SHV) type of deposit, a subset of the broader “orogenic” class of gold deposits.
The prospect owner controls 100% of the mining property through a mining company. Access to the mine is by road vehicles.

| Location: | The Incahuasi project is located in the southern part of the Puna physiographic region of northwestern Argentina and is the Argentinian portion of the high Andean plateau which is known as the Altiplano in Bolivia and Peru. Most of the Puna region is remote, but accessible via an extensive network of dirt tracks and all-weather, graded dirt roads. The property is most conveniently accessed from Salta, the regional population center, via approximately 400 m of mixed paved, but mostly all-season graded dirt road. Small villages and towns are scattered throughout the Puna.Incahuasi is situated at an elevation of approximately 4,000m (13,200’) among hills and ridges at the south edge of a large salar (salt flat) called Salar de Hombre Muerto . Surrounding area to the south, west and east is open gentle to moderate topography and is suitable for mining infrastructure. |
