Diamond drilling in 2007 concentrated along the southeast section of the Dos Hornos Zone 1 from Trench 4 to south of Mina San Miguel as shown in the attached maps. A total of 29 diamond drill holes for a total of approx. 5,200 m along the Dos Hornos Zone 1 were completed. The balance of assays for DDH 21-06, DDH 22-06 and all of DDH 07-23 have been received.

Major amounts of pyrite varying in colour from black to brass yellow to silvery, occur as disseminations, fracture filling and veinlets. Amounts range from 1% to 30 %, limonite and hematite. Free gold was observed with pyrite.

DDH 07 – 24 & 25 Results pending. |

DDH 07 – 26, 27, 28 & 29 Logged and shipped during the last week of June for assaying. |
Alteration assemblages associated with the quartz veins and quartz stock work in the SE segment are epithermal but of the higher temperature variety. Along the mineralized section alteration of the wall rock is argillic, sericite, secondary feldspar, chlorite – epidote (propylithic) and silica flooding with or without chalcedony and calcite replacement in places. Faulting, brecciation and micro brecciation is common and extensive. The rocks are very porous and have abundant open spaces and cavities.
Several drill holes cut ash tuffs with silica flooding showing sulphides as dissemination and veinlets. At this time, we do not know if there is a change in grade associated with these ash tuffs.
