    • Large-scale open pit porphyries produce large volumes of Cu-Au-Fe concentrate that require:

    • Railway: to Antofagasta crosses Las Burras property

    • Power line: Argentina to northern Chile 500Kv is 15kms south of Las Burras

    • Pacific Ocean port: Antofagasta, Chile by rail from Las Burras = 750kms

    • Natural gas pipeline Argentina to northern Chile is 10kms south of Las Burras

    2. Highly-anomalous Au-Ag-Cu samples are present from surrounding area

    3. Trench and MMI samples confirm high-potential for large-scale mineralized system directly below anomaly

    hosted in porphyritic quartz monzonite (Granite)

    2. The center of the porphyry is in a alluvium covered valley

    3. The Cu-Au system is outlined by intense quartz-sericite-pyrite alteration

    4. The central zone is 1,200 metres east-west by 1,600 metres north-south

    5. The geophysical anomaly indicates the system is open at a depth >500 metres

    • strong chargeability anomaly is coincident with a low–resistivity anomaly

    • strong magnetic–low is also outlined in the central portion of the grid coincident with the strong conductive chargeable anomaly

    • the geophysical data outline a large complex hydrothermal alteration system that is open to depth

    LAS BURRAS MMI GEOCHEMISTRY

    A program of Mobile Metal Ions Technology (MMI-M) soil geochemical survey revealed a number of precious-rare earth - and base- metal anomalies. A significant Au-Ag anomaly is marked by coincident elevated Cu-Mo responses The zonation and the distribution of the anomalies suggests there are several different phases of mineralization present on the propertyA follow-up diamond drilling program is recommendedto test the precious metal anomalies

    LAS BURRAS CONCLUSIONS

    • Geological data from surveys by Mansfield Minera 1998, regional studies by Mazzuolicombined with mapping, geochemical and prospecting data by SESA provide evidencefor the existence of a buried porphyry Cu-Au deposit at Las Burras

    • Geophysical surveys show a core of high-chargeability and low-resistivity coincidentwith a zone of low-magnetic susceptibility

    • The core zone is flanked and partly surrounded by a rim of high-resistivity. Thisconfiguration is consistent with the geophysical signature of a typical Andean porphyrydeposit

    • Geological, mapping and geophysical data support the existence of a porphyry coppergold system in the central part of the geophysical grid

    • A program of core drilling to test this exploration model is proposed

    Incahuasi porphyry system covers a larger area than Las Burras

    The core magnetic – low is 3,000 metres in diametre

    Incahuasi has four separate prospective zones

  • TSXV:CCD

    GEOPHYSICAL SUMMARY INCAHUASI PORPHYRY PROSPECT

    • ground magnetic data outline a large, broad magnetic-low measuring over 3,000m in diameter

    • Several strong IP anomalies are present at Incahuasi• amplitude of the chargeability exceeds 50 mV/V on multiple lines and

    reaches 88 mV/V• strong chargeability anomaly within valley = 3,000m east west and

    400m to 800m north south • second chargeability anomaly southwest of the primary anomaly• southwest extension is located in the hills outside of the main valley• chargeabilities are somewhat lower (20 to 35 mV/V) associated with

    low-resistivities and a moderate magnetic-high

    • geophysical data appear to map a large complex hydrothermal alteration system at Incahuasi
