 Tarsis Resources Ltd. (TSXV:TCC) commenced exploration at its Yago gold-silver property in Mexico. The Company recently acquired a 100% interest in the project from Almaden Minerals Ltd. (TSX:AMM).
As quoted in the press release:
The project encompasses 15,000 hectares and hosts numerous gold-silver bearing low sulphidation epithermal vein showings and artisanal mine workings largely concentrated in two parts of the property referred to as La Sarda and La Tejona. Historical and recent small scale mining have been conducted at La Sarda while only minor historical mining is evident at La Tejona, 7 km to the southeast. Sporadic exploration has been carried out within both target areas by a number of different junior operators between 1998 and 2007. The culmination of this work at La Sarda and La Tejona has identified surface and subsurface mineralization intermittently over 3 km2 and 2.5 km2, respectively.
Prior work by Almaden and others indicate that both areas feature a high-level epithermal environment characterized by chalcedonic/opalescent silica and acid sulphate alteration in conjunction with reportedly low fluid inclusion microthermometry temperatures. Mineralized samples from lower elevations display typical colloform quartz-adularia banding; some with finely banded black sulphide and others with multiple phases of hydraulic brecciation.
