USPR -- Exploration Program
Definition and confirmation drilling is planned in the areas where
mineralization is believed to be present ("Discovery Zones"). Confirmation
sampling of surface exposures has been completed with the results consistent
with MIM reports. A total of 21 reverse drill holes were completed during the
previous exploration campaign. Our approach will be to "core" drill and confirm
their results, expand the resource and block out a mineable area. The core will
be available for inspection at our warehouse and office facility in Morelia. A
total of twenty drill holes, 500 ft. in depth are planned.
Five drill holes have been designated for deep drilling to test the potential
for a porphyry target at depth. Two locations have been targeted for deep
drilling to date. The locations of the remaining three holes are dependent upon
the results of the first two drill holes, the results of the definition
drilling, reconnaissance mapping and information obtained from other exploration
techniques.
Exploration drilling to expand the near surface mineralized material within the
initial discovery zones is planned for all three zones we have labeled the Main
zone, North zone and Cuendeo to the south. The geophysical induced polarization
(IP) anomaly is 3 kilometers in length from north to south leaving large gaps
between the three mineralized zones open for exploration drilling.
Expanding the geochemical soil survey of the concession has been planned to
include the entire three kilometer long anomaly and the remaining concession
limits.
Continued field reconnaissance and sampling will be ongoing and completed during
road construction inspection, soil surveys and drilling.
