Altiplano Minerals (TSXV:APN) has reported progress in its exploration of the historic Farellon copper-gold Mine near La Serena, Chile, including a shift toward identification of new mineralized vein material.

As quoted in the press release:

Chief executive officer of Altiplano John Williamson said “the Company anticipates completion of our 5,000 tonne bulk sampling program at Farellon by the second week of May, which will be 7 weeks in total, versus the 12 weeks that it took for our initial 2,000 tonne bulk sampling program. We have charted our productivity which demonstrates an accelerated operating performance. We are committed to continuous improvement as we develop and test our capacity to extract up to 5,000 tonnes per month, while managing dilution and grade to achieve our target of 2 percent copper.  We will now expand our exploration program to different levels and extensions of the Farellon vein system in order to upgrade our inferred mineral resources.”
