Astorius’ 229 hectare Osos 1 mining concession lies within the El Oro province of southern Ecuador, 35 kilometers south-southeast of the port city of Machala and 10 kilometers southwest of Lumina Gold’s Cangrejos Project. No drilling has to date taken place on the property. Access to the property is by paved and gravel roads. (see: map)
Studies by Newmont on and around the property in 2000 included Aerial Geophysics, soil, and rock geochemical analysis. Between 2006 and 2009 Kinross conducted geological mapping, soil, and rocks geochemical studiesand identified anomalies of gold with arsenic in an area covering 1000 x 600 meters. (see: map)
Astorius carried out a due diligence study of the property in December 2016, during which the best sample taken of artisinally mined minerals within the property yielded an assay of 252 g/t Au (see News Release dated March 21, 2017). The scale of development of these gold veins may merit upscaling of current artisanal mining to significantly larger conventional underground mining operations. The breccia’s mapped at surface by Kinross are present at depth and carry significant levels of gold. These breccias have the potential, as illustrated by breccia’s in similar geological settings, to be profitably mined by bulk open pit or underground methods. (see: picture)
Detailed sampling and mapping of all underground workings on the property is planned for Q1 2018 in preparation for a diamond-drilling program targeting both high-grade vein gold/silver mineralization, and lower grade disseminated gold mineralization.
The Board is very pleased with the property agreement and looking forward to the 2018 work program on the Osos 1 property.
