Buldibuyo Mine Gold Project
 

The Buldibuyo gold mine is contained in a 160-km-long orogenic gold belt extending along the Eastern Andean Cordillera in northern Peru that has produced to date millions of ounces of gold from vein-type deposits.

The region is host to numerous gold vein mines, mainly included in the Pataz and Parcoy districts, located 45km and 15 km north of the Buldibuyo district.

 



 
Buldibuyo Gold Project
 

Overview                                                              

  • With 1410ha ground in two leases, the Project is big enough to restart operation and also has room to grow.
  • Previously mined using small scale and primitive mining methods, the application of modern bulk mining methods has the potential to reduce costs and increase production rates

** The reliability of the historical data is unknown but considered relevant by Company management. The historical data is non NI43-101 compliant and should not be relied upon. It is the Company's intention to verify the historical data and confirmation work may produce results that differ substantially from the historic results.

Currently

  • The project has developed access to ore grade material providing for low cost and quick resumption of mining and development of additional mining stopes
  • The resource is open for expansion at depth and along strike.
  • The project has a small CIP plant which requires limited maintenance to return to operating condition.


 
Historic Information
 



 
Buldibuyo Gold Mine
Due Diligence Site Visit, October 2013
 

Underground Mine Sampling

Ten (10) samples were taken along the Patricia vein, samples were taken at the two levels (Erwin and South Chili) underground mine.

Lab assaying returned range from 0.057 to 46.5 g/t Au. Grade was found to generally correspond to visual intensity of mineralization as well as transversal ore shoots defined in historic mapping and observed during the site visit..

Additional Buldibuyo Exploration Targets
 

Los Hornos - El Cura Target
Outside of the existing mine, previous owners have identified a zone with potential for low-grade gold .
(Breccia body in Los Hornos stockwork zone)



 
Additional Buldibuyo Exploration Targets
 

Los Hornos - El Cura Target,(continued)
The Los Hornos -El Cura exploration zone contains an intensively fractured and brecciated, 500m x 500m, stockwork area. Alteration includes gold-bearing, quartz-veining and quartz-sericite alteration in a granodioritic -tonalitic intrusion.



 
The Buldibuyo Gold Mine is located
in a world class address
 

 


 



 
The Plan
 

Strategic Alliance with Mining Plus & ExploAndes, establish NI 43-101 compliant reserves, produce required technical reports including mine design & production plan as well as work on renewing the mining approvals
   
Engage Suitable Environmental Consultant to commence working on environmental approval renewals
