Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSXV:KTN) provided an update on geological mapping and prospecting at its Mexico-based Cervantes gold-copper porphyry, commenting that it believes the concession has the potential to host leachable gold resources.
As quoted in the press release:
Current work shows the Cervantes concession to be underlain by a suite of mineralization styles of which the California gold/copper porphyry is most significant. Important peripheral mineralized zones to the porphyry includes the sediment-hosted shear zone Brasil with polymetallic gold/silver, the Purisima specular hematite-sericite-barite-gold bearing breccias and high and low sulphidation epithermal veins and breccia’s. The mineralized systems are hosted within Paleozoic fine-grained clastics intruded by high level, quartz-eye porphyritic intrusions. Mineralization is associated with major fault structures controlling a pull-apart basin.
