TMT Project Update
- Since securing rights to acquire the TMT project in January 2023, the Company has advanced exploration on multiple fronts at the Argentine project with assistance from Condor Prospecting. The TMT project is located in San Juan Province in an underexplored gap between two renowned metallogenic belts (Figure 1*). San Juan province has been ranked as the #1 destination in South America for mining investments.
Notable advances at the project include:
- Secured and registered ground of over 32,000 ha in one of the most prolific sectors of the Andean range.
- The transfer of all tenements to GWK Minerals S.A. has been registered in San Juan mines department (Figure 2 on page 4*).
- Desktop review of the project's historical data with compliance to the 2012 JORC standard underway.
- A technical due diligence expedition was made on the site by one of the Company's geologists with geologists from Condor Prospecting to validate the historical information.
- A field trip was conducted in February 2023 to check the condition of the project's main access track and historical campsite. Both were found to be in good condition.
- A field trip was made during mid-April to investigate the condition of the project's northern access track.
- A total of 9 Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) comprising the whole TMT project have been completed by a consultant based in San Juan province, and have already been submitted to the mines department. These EIAs include repairing the access track, reinstating the historical campsite, building new access tracks to the northern areas of interest and an initial drilling stage of 12,000m of diamond drilling.
- Prominent exploration geologist Dr Steve Garwin has been engaged to process, interpret and report on Sentinel-2 & Aster Geophysical Imagery. The analysis of Mr Garwin highlighted the potential of the TMT project, identifying various areas of interest and showing conspicuous anomalies in certain zones which are compatible with high sulfidation and porphyry type deposits.
