About Revelo’s Montezuma project:
The Montezuma project comprises approximately 44,000 Ha of 100% owned tenements. It is located along the main porphyry copper belt in northern Chile, directly along the main West Fissure Fault System that controls several copper deposits in the area, midway between the giant Chuquicamata (Codelco) and Centinela (Antofagasta Minerals) copper mining districts. The property is centred approximately 20Km south of the important mining town of Calama. Access to the property is excellent via a good quality dirt road leading off from paved roads and altitudes vary from approximately 2,600 m to around 3,100 m.
Several copper-gold targets have been identified which are currently being advanced to drill testing. The targets are largely obscured by post-mineral gravels and mudflow deposits along the West Fissure Fault and associated fault splays that extend south from the Chuquicamata copper mine into the Montezuma property, then further south to the Centinela district of porphyry copper deposits.
